This baby-safe toy is just the right size for small hands, has eyes that can’t come off, and is machine washable and dryable! Also appropriate for fidgeters, including the elderly.

You will need at least 2 colors of worsted weight cotton yarn: a small amount for the eyes and one or more other colors for the head & tail. You may want a contrasting color for a mouth. Great for using your cotton scraps.

If the stuffing shows through, go down a hook size or sew up any holes. The stuffing should not be visible.
