Fly away through the night skies with Orpheus the Pegasus. With his dark skin and sparkly mane, Orpheus is almost impossible to distinguish from the constellation at night. If you’re lucky enough to spot him, this majestic creature from Greek mythology will grant you one wish! What will you ask for?

The pattern is written in U.S. terminology. The main part of this project is worked in rounds so you might want to use a stitch marker to mark the end of each round. There is no specific gauge for this project, just try to keep it tight and even throughout each piece. Orpheus the Pegasus measures approx. 16.5cm (6.5in), when using the same yarn/tools as indicated below and working with the “x” single crochet technique (yarn under, yarn over).
