The main plush part of the toy is crocheted from 3 strands of yarn – 2 strands
of Alize Sotfy yarn of different colors and optionally you can add cotton strand,
so that the toy kept shape and did not yield.
Final measurement for the finished toy will be about 13.5 inches (36 cm) tall (if
you use the materials mentioned above)
You can pick up the same yarn and hook size or any yarn and suitable hook
size.

inserting needle next to the point you just come out (photo 18), while doing so
