- Slowly stuff as you go, you want it to be firm but not stretched. You will be working in the round; I like to use a stitch marker at the beginning of each round.

- The legs, body and head will be made as one piece.

- Yarn used is Hobbii Toucan in the shade Sand (04).

Legs - Make 2

With beige

Round 1: Create a MC with 6 SC

Round 2: SC INC in each st (12)

Rounds 3-6: SC around (12)

Fasten off on the first leg only. When you complete the 2nd leg continue to round 7 to join the legs.

Round 7: Chain 3 and attach to the first leg with a SC. SC in the remaining stitches around the leg. When you reach the chain make a SC across each of the 3 chains. SC in the remaining stitches of the next leg and SC across each of the 3 chains again. You will have crocheted on each side of the chain. (30 SC) This completes your join and is where your next round will start to form the body.

 

Rounds 8-12: SC around (30)

Round 13: *SC in the first 3 sts, INV DEC in the next*, *rep around (24)

Round 14: SC around (24)

Round 15: *SC in the first 2 sts, INV DEC in the next*, *rep around (18)

Round 16: *SC in the first st, INV DEC in the next*, *rep around (12)

Round 20: *SC in the first 4 sts, SC INC in the next*, *rep around (36)

Rounds 21-25: SC around (36)

NOTE: Here is where we will attach the facial features. Place the safety eyes 5 stitches apart between rounds 23 and 24. Add eyebrows/eyelashes to your liking before securing the backs of your safety eyes.

Nose – Cut a strand of white yarn approximately 6 inches long. Place the nose between your eyes and one stitch in on each side (this will leave 3 stitches in the middle and this is what you will pass your yarn through to create the nose). Pass through 2-3 times.

Cheeks – With pink yarn pass through 1 stitch just outside and below each eye.
