Meet Cheddar, a little mouse named for her favorite food. If you hear her squeaking, she is probably asking for a nibble or two.

She can be made in any yarn and hook combination you want. Just be certain that the fabric is firm enough that stuffing does not show through.

My Cheddar is made in Vanna’s Choice Solids using two different colors:

• Silver Grey (30 yards)
• Pink (10 yards)

Cheddar is an advanced beginner-level pattern. Skills you will need include single crochet, increases, decreases, color changes, embroidering eyes using yarn and some seaming.

The pattern includes plenty of progress photos to help you along your way to making your miniature mouse.
