— Pattern Notes :
Info :
I use the *ch 2, sc in second ch from hook* method to crochet in the round. You can substitute for the magic circle, it just isn't my preferred method. This pattern is written in US terms and is advanced beginner skill level. When working with amigurumi, be sure to crochet tightly unless otherwise specified in the pattern. When tying off ends, you should assume that you are leaving a long tail for sewing. Have fun!
