Materials & Tools

Yarn: Worsted or DK weight in two colors: beige (for the face, ears, and legs) and cream or white (for the body and wool).
Crochet Hook: 3.0 mm or 3.5 mm (or suitable size for your chosen yarn).
Notions: 4mm safety eyes, stitch marker, polyester stuffing, yarn needle, sewing pins, scissors.

Gauge

Abbreviations

ch - chain
sc - single crochet
inc - increase (2 single crochets in same stitch)
dec - decrease (single crochet 2 together)
sl st - slip stitch
MR - magic ring
BLO - back loop only

Special Stitch Instructions

Magic Ring (MR): Form a loop and work stitches into it for a tight, seamless start.
Back Loop Only (BLO): Work stitches into the back loop of each stitch only, leaving a ridge for attaching "wool."
Chain-3 Slip Stitch Loop: To create wool texture, chain 3, slip stitch in the same front loop, repeating this in every free front loop around the opening.

The Chain-3 Slip Stitch Loop is a simple crochet technique that creates a small, decorative loop. It involves making three chain stitches followed by a slip stitch to form a secure, rounded loop. This technique adds texture and detail, often used in edging, embellishments, or connecting motifs in crochet projects.

Finished Size

Approximately 11-12 cm (4.5 inches) tall when completed using DK yarn and a 3.5mm hook.
