Hi

Welcome to my listing.  I have many patterns available and more are being designed on a regular basis.  Please feel free to follow me on Instagram here: www.instagram.com/craftypum

and on Facebook here: www.facebook.com/craftypum

Please feel free to join me and see my new designs as they develop and join in the regular giveaways that I do.

This listing is for the pattern to make the hippo pictured and will be printed then delivered by Royal Mail first class.

Lovely cuddly toy or add a bag of sand / gravel / rice when stuffing the body to turn these animals into doorstops.

If super chunky yarn is used with a size 8 hook the finished product should measure around 17 inches. Obviously a smaller hook and smaller yarn can be used to make a smaller animal if preferred.

Great gift if you purchase the items required to make and package together as a great Christmas gift idea. The items required would be:

2x 100g balls of super chunky yarn in an the  colour natural and a small amount in the colour cream ( I used Hayfield super chunky)

1 x size 8 hook

1 pair of safety eyes.

Stuffing

Yarn needle to sew together
