Want to make this cute little guy? Bertrand is about 6 inches tall and he is fierce! He has a lot of personality and would be a great toy for a boy of any age. I have included a step by step pattern to make this small but mighty creature. I hope you enjoy.
Key:
Ch= chain
Sc= single crochet
inc= increase
dec= decrease
sl st= slip stitch
Supplies: Blue
and green yarn, black and white embroidery floss, doll safety eyes in two
sizes, white felt, embroidery needle, 3.5 mm hook, thread and needle, and
scissors.
Prepare by threading your needles. Also cut out the teeth for the mouth.
I like to make the body first incase my gage is different
that day so when I go to attach everything, it all looks like the right size.
