This Piggy is a quick and simple pattern. I like an anatomically accurate look when writing patterns, still incorporating a cute cartoony endearing quality. If crochet in XL size as suggested with size 6 super bulky yarn and 9mm hook, from it’s adorable snoot to it’s round rump measures aprox 12” making it the perfect hugging size and a lovely cuddle buddy. Pattern can be translated to multiple sizes like the Mini Piggy, by following yarn gauge recommendation. All materials listed with detailed finishing instructions.
