Started with one strand of what felt like a light worsted/DK. I didn’t like how small it came out so now I am crocheting with 2 strands held double. Same acrylic white I bought for the star wars characters. My crochet is so tight that this thing is hard as a helmet. I guess it should be firm, but I am trying to become a more relaxed crocheter. Got stopped at the place where I need to place eyes. The eyes I have are all 7mm and too small. So off to the store to get eyes while I work on the body and other parts.

All parts are crocheted. I couldn’t get the right size and color of eyes at a local store and there isn’t time to order, so I will embroider them on. Nose is on. Mouth and tongue are on. Have to sew on ears and legs and tail. I hope he really stands up…
