Additional Information:
Difficulty: Easy
This pattern makes a cute dinosaur! This pattern refers to “Main Color”, which is the main color you want your dinosaur to be. I used green as the “Main Color” for one and white for the other. You can use any “Main Color” you want. First, we start by making the body. Next, we make all the spikes which are different sizes and pin them on in order shown in the pattern. Next, we make the stubby legs, then create the spots. Finally, you can make little cheeks if desired.
Boucle Bear and Bunny
Crochet your own adorable classic teddy bear and bunny using special boucle yarn! These sweet stuffies are so soft and cuddly and will make perfect gifts for you and your loved ones! You will need less than 1 skein of Baby Soft Boucle Yarn to crochet each stuffed animal (70 g of “Tan” for Bear and 80 g of “Peach” for Bunny). This special boucle yarn blurs the stitches and gives an amazing finished look as people will hardly believe that they are crocheted!
Please note that this pattern is not recommended for complete beginners as some crochet, amigurumi and working in the round experience would be beneficial (you cannot see individual stitches when working with this yarn, so you will need to feel for the next stitch). Tips for working with boucle/fuzzy yarn are included in the pattern, and the skill level would be a Level 3 Intermediate.
