Abbreviation
MR – magic ring
sc – single crochet
dec- decrease
inc- increase
()- repeating sequence
x – repeat followed by
dc – double crochet
ch – chain
hdc – half double crochet
slst- Slip Stitch
BLO- Back loop only
FLO- Front loop only
Note: It is technically crocheted. With low points in the shape of an x. but it doesn’t matter which sc shape you choose. I used the spiral technique. So you’re going to need a marker, a point marker. Since almost everything is knitted in one piece, I suggest you knit in the order the pattern was written. The only thing you will have to sew are his ears. Instead of using plastic eyes you can also embroider them. For more safety in babies. The final measure of the is 20cm but if you choose a thicker thread and a larger needle the result will be a larger bead.
