MATERIALS AND TOOLS

Vita Coco yarn (100% mercerized cotton; 2400 m/50 g) or any other cotton or microfiber yarn of the following colors:
-pink - the color of the body. I used YarnArt ANGORA RAM (40% mohair, 60% acrylic, 500 m/100 g) color 204
Vita Coco, dark-blue (3857) - to make the sneakers and shirt
Vita Coco, red (3856) - to make the overalls
Vita Coco, white (3851) - to make the soles of the sneakers
Vita Coco, brown (4306) - to make the hooves
Vita Coco, orange (4305) - to make the helmet
You only need leftovers of each color yarn. This project can be a perfect way to use leftovers of yarn you have.

To make the eye whites you can use embroidery threads, Iris yarn or Vita Pelican of white color - you need just a leftover of this yarn.
You will also need a leftover of black embroidery thread to make decorative stitches and embroider the muzzle.

TIP: If you need exactly the same yarn you can ask via private message in this shop on Etsy

  • 8 mm toy eyes or beads
  • Transparent glue (if you want to glue the eyes on instead of sewing them on)
  • two tiny buttons for the overalls
  • 1.0-1.5 mm copper wire - approx. 1 m. You can buy this wire in a craft shop, but I suggest buying it in an electronic goods store. There you can buy a 31.5 cord. Before buying the cord, make sure that the wire inside it is whole and does not consist of several thin wires. With a paper knife, remove the insulation.
  • a piece of plastic card to make the soles of the shoes
  • fabric plaster
  • stuffing polyester
  • strong thread to join the parts of the toy
  • decorative accessories (a bucket)

TOOLS:

  • 1.25 mm crochet hook (the size of the hook depends on the yarn you use). 1 mm crochet hook to make the eye whites
  • wire cutter
  • scissors
  • black permanent marker or a ballpoint pen (to draw nostrils instead of embroidering them)
