Meet Primrose the Pig! They say pigs adore the mud, but not Primrose. You can find her inside on a sunny window seat with the latest YA release and a bag of Skittles. Wouldn’t want to get that beautiful skirt dirty!

Primrose is crocheted continuously in the round from the top down. Her pattern makes an amigurumi pig about 7.5″ tall when crocheted with the yarn specified. The 10-page pattern has been tested by crocheters and includes multiple pictures to guide you with assembly.

This digital PDF pattern is in English and uses U.S. crochet terms.
