A VERY QUICK GUIDE TO THE CROCHET STITCHES USED IN THIS PATTERN
- Chain (ch): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through loop on hook.
- Decrease (dec): I prefer the “invisible” decrease. Insert hook into front loop of first stitch (from the front and under).
Repeat into front loop of next stitch. Yarn over, pull loop through 2 loops on hook, yarn over and pull loop through final 2 loops on hook. - Half double crochet (hdc): Yarn over, insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull loop through all three loops on the hook.
- Half double crochet increase (hdc-inc): Work two half double crochets into the same stitch.
- Increase (inc): Work two single crochets into the same stitch.
- Magic ring: Wrap yarn around fingers to form a loop. Insert hook through middle of loop. Pull working end of yarn through ring and chain the required number of stitches through. Pull the yarn ends to close the loop.
- Single crochet (sc): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (2 loops on hook), yarn over, pull loop through both
loops on hook. - Slip stitch (st): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch and loop on hook.

ASSEMBLY
- Sew the body to the head. The opening of the body should be sewn over Rnd 12 to 18 at the bottom of the head. Note that the colour change line of the body should face the back. If you created the white stitches in Rnd 18 of the body, ensure that this is evenly spaced relative to the head. You can tilt his head slightly to give him a cuter look.
- Sew the arms to the body. The flat edge of each arm should be sewn between Rnd 21 and 22 of the body. The front corners of each arm should be 7 st apart.
- Sew the legs to the body. The top of each leg should be sewn over Rnd 7 to 10 of the body and just behind the midline of the body. Sew a few extra stitches along each leg to hold the legs snug against the body.
- Sew the ears with the flat edge over Rnd 13 to 15 of the head. The front of the ears should be 22 st apart.
- Sew the tail to the back of the body centred between the legs. The flat edge of the tail should be sewn over Rnd 7 to 9 of the body.
- Place and sew the hat to the head.
- Thread a piece of gold string through the top of the hat for hanging.
