Information to make it with 2 different types of yarn
You can use any type of yarn to make this pattern, BUT, please know that if you use a bulky weight yarn, I strongly suggest you to use something to strenghten the neck (I use a foam hair curler).
DIFFICULTY
Intermediate (with video tutorials available to help beginners)
SKILLS REQUIRED
Crocheting in spiral, magic ring, chain, slip stitch, single crochet stitch, increasing and decreasing.
MATERIAL FOR ALL
• Polyester fiberfill for stuffing
• Yarn needle, measuring tape, scissors, stitch marker, sewing pins
• 1 voluminous hair curler from the dollar store to help support the head (needed only if you’re using plush/blanket/velvet yarns). The ones I used were 22mm wide and 21cm long.
