Notes

I want this one to be bigger so I increased to 56 stitches, then did 17 rounds even before starting decreases.

Made the head larger by not doing round 46, ended up with 24 stitches for the head instead of 16.

I picked up & knit 14 stitches for each leg, but did just 5/6 rounds even before decreasing.

Much better size than my first one.

Love it!
