____________________
* If you cannot make AR, then make 2 ch and crochet in the second loop from the
hook – it’ll be AR

* Size is valid when using recommended yarn and crochet hook. I crochet in “X”-
form.

 Tips:
• Work in spiral, don’t join with a slip stitch in the end of the row and don’t
turn, unless otherwise stated.
• There are floating loops in this pattern
• There are turning rows in this pattern.
• Use marker or contrast color thread in the beginning of the row for marking
the first loop of each new row.
• Stuff the toy with filler more tight, so that it doesn’t lose shape.
