Notes

Start with 23 gram ball of acrylic.

I decreased the head by two stitches this time.

I don’t like the horn on this pattern so I checked others & instead spread the decreases across all the stitches. I CO 16 stitches on size 4 needles with the pink yarn & gold thread held together, did 10 rounds even then started decreases with K3, K2tog & 3 rounds between decreases. After I had it stuffed, I used the Vegas cord to do a spiral surface crochet around the horn. It could probably be bigger - I had trouble deciding how many to CO & how tall to make it.

Button joints. I bought a doll needle & that helped. One nostril is a little misplaced, but maybe it gives her character?!

Fiddly, but worth it for my granddaughter!
