Notes

Sister requested 2 Sesame Street muppet Yip Yips with short fringes, each large enough to hold two pairs of sunglasses with cases. Am using purple and red acrylic yarn from Walmart, purchased long ago - probably Bernat Premium or Red Heart Comfort. The labels are long gone, so who knows.

Increased the base to 48 sts. Following the construction, but not the exact numbers.

  • make a round base
  • make the body
  • on 2/3 of the sts, crochet back and forth, but ch1-sc2tog at each edge
  • when there a few sts left, crochet around the mouth opening
  • join the top sts in the round and make a few rounds, just enough of a small bump to attach the eyes
  • decrease at the top
  • make a loop for hanging

Used a smaller hook for the eyes.
