No thoughts, just vibes. The ultimate friend is finally here! My Capybara crochet pattern is officially live.

This little capybara is the perfect cozy afternoon project and he’s ready to pull up to your yarn stash. Grab the pattern at the link in my bio and start your own capy-club!

The pattern is written in English and uses U.S terminology.
A basic knowledge of stitches is advised but instructions for special stitches are included.

You can easily substitute the yarn in the pattern for another. If changing ply simply adjust your hook size accordingly. This will however affect the finished size.
