A simple amigumi pattern, I have only made it using DK acrylic and a 3mm and 3.5mm hook. But I am sure it would work with chunky yarn and a larger hook or finer cotton and smaller hook to match. If needed I can make a video of the pattern, depending on feedback I get. I have had a few people pattern test this for me, so thank you Icy, Grace, Kate, Caro, Suzy, Abby and all the other people who have had a go for me. Additional feedback is welcome and me and Jamie would love to see your makes!
