Notes:
 Amigurumi is usually stitched in the round and a yarn with no stretch is best, I prefer cotton or cotton blend.
 When changing colour, pull through the new colour on the stitch before you need it. This will ensure that you have the correct colour yarn on the hook for the upcoming stitch.
 I recommend that you drop the yarn at the back when changing colours and pick up again when needed instead of carrying the yarn (working over it) to avoid the carried yarn being visible once stuffed.
 The yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of the finished item. My measurements are as follows:
o Larry the Lamington = 7cm tall x 7cm wide
o Pam the Pavlova = 9cm tall x 9cm wide
 For this pattern, I’ve used less than 50g of the following yarns:
o WHITE = Stylecraft Classique Cotton DK in col 3660 White
o BEIGE = Scheepjes Stonewashed in col 801 Moon Stone
o GREEN = Scheepjes Stonewashed in col 819 New Jade
o BROWN = Scheepjes Stonewashed in col 822 Brown Agate
o RED = Scheepjes Stonewashed in col 807 Red Jasper
o PURPLE = Scheepjes Stonewashed in col 811 Deep Amethyst
