what stitches to do this round, and how many times
For round 3, repeat the pattern in the brackets 4 times. The pattern is: single

crochet in 1 stitch, then increase stitch in the next stitch. Because an increase
is actually 2 single crochet stitches in the same stitch of the previous round,
the total number of stitches in this round is 12.

To keep track of where you are, use a stitch marker to mark the beginning of
each round. Each time you start a new round, move the stitch marker to the

Your piece might start curling - that’s totally normal. For a neater final look,
push the middle of your piece until it curves the other way. This makes the
“right side” face out. Then keep crocheting to the left. If you’re a lefty, keep
crocheting to the right.

Fasten off, leaving a long tail. Use needle and tail to
attach the bangs around the horn. The side of the bangs
that should face up is the side where the shorter bangs
naturally curl up. The shorter bangs will probably lift up,
so you might need to sew down the base of the fringe
too. When you’re done, hide both yarn tails.
Invisible fasten off, leaving a long tail. Fold the ear in
half. Use needle and tail to sew each ear where the
bangs and the mane meet. The ears should point up and
face forwards.
BLUSH
Pink yarn
Step 1.
Thread an arm’s length of pink yarn through a needle.

under the other eye.
Step 3.
Insert the needle one stitch over, and pull it out where
the needle originally went into the unicorn.
Step 4.
Tie both yarn tails together, and hide them.
