Gary is a cute and fluffy little guy embellished with embroidered stars. He’s easy to make using chenille yarn so he works up fast and since he’s not too big Gary is a great way to finally use up all those leftover bits of chenille yarn hiding in your closet. The finished duck measures approximately 14 inches x 10 inches/34 cm x 26 cm.

The pattern consists of 12 PDF pages, clearly stuctured with many pictures and helpful side notes. The difficulty level is suitable for beginners. Note: Even though the pattern includes numerous tips and helpful advice, it does NOT replace a crocheting course.
