***** A NOTE ON YARNS*****
Almost all of the yarns I use in my stash has been given to me, so they vary widely. However I suggest the same weight, and if possible the same brand if you are buying new skeins, of at least 3.5 oz of each color. This ensures that each piece will match in size and shape as “medium weight” can vary from brand to brand.

Colors needed for pieces: body color, scarf color, and mane color (which is two medium weight yarns held together- I used two different colors but you can use one skein with both ends held together).

Recommended Hook size: 3.25 mm (used in pattern) or 3.5 mm

Supplies:

• Yarn

• Yarn Needle

• Sewing pins

• Fiber filling

• Scissors

• 12 mm Safety eyes - you can also use buttons or eyes of choice

• Crochet hook

• Scrap yarn or stitch markers

• Pet Brush or bristle brush for brushing out the mane.

Some pieces are worked in the round and some worked flat. Each piece is noted before you begin.
