Size
By using this yarn and hook sizes your finished Donkey will be roughly
38cm/16inches in height
30 cm/12 inches in length
15cm/6 inches in width
Useful items
Stitch markers
Stitch counter
Darning needle
This pattern uses US terms,
Ch = chain stitch
Sc = single crochet
Hdc = half double crochet
Dc = double crochet
Tr = treble crochet
Inc= single crochet increase
Dec = single crochet decrease
FLO = Front loop only
BLO = Back loop only
If you are planning to make your Donkey in a heavier weight yarn, adjust your hook size accordingly. Use the smallest hook size possible for the weight of yarn that you are using. We need the stitches tight so the stuffing doesn’t show too much between stitches. I recommend making a test motif to gauge tension.
