Materials 

#4 worsted weight yarn, approx 120 yards

Polyfibre fill

E 3.5mm hook for worsted weight

Needle for sewing in ends and attaching pieces

                   

Stitch Guide: 

sl: slip stitch

ch: chain

sk: skip

st: stitch

bb: back bump

yo: yarn over

mc: main colour

ac: accent colour

blo: back loop only                      

flo: front loop only                      

bb: back bump

sc: single crochet

sc dec: single crochet decrease

hdc: half double crochet

hdc incr: half double crochet increase

Special Instructions: I suggest using the invisible dec wherever it says in the pattern to do a dec, it helps with the overall look of the item, and helps to reduce stuffing showing through on those rows/rounds


Gauge is not important with this item, changing the hook or yarn size will simply change the size of the finished piece, just make sure you use the appropriate size hook for your yarn
