This toy consists of two parts: the main body and accessories. First, crochet the main body part, then make and attach each accessory.

Part 1 Main part

The main part includes an inner layer and an outer layer. Crochet them separately and then assemble.

Step 1 Inner layer

The inner layer is divided into Section 1 and Section 2. Section 1 uses the magic ring method, crocheting in rounds counterclockwise from the starting chain. Section 2 is crocheted in rounds at the opening left by Section 1.

Step 3 Assemble

The crocheted inner and outer layers are assembled together, and during this process, fiberfill needs to be added, and a zipper (sewing thread) should be installed. 

Part 2 Accessories

The accessories include the tail, head, face, belly, and legs.

Step 1 Tail

The tail is started with an adjustable magic ring, and crocheted in rounds counter-clockwise from the beginning. There are color changes during the process. After completing it, add the stuffing and sew it onto the corresponding position of the main part.

Step 4 Belly

The belly is divided into Section 1, Section 2, Section 3, and the edging. For Section 1, we will start with a foundation chain and work in rounds back and forth along the starting chain. Sections 2 and 3 are worked back and forth based on Section 1. After completing these sections, crochet a round of edging. Finally, sew it onto the bottom of the main piece.

Step 5 Legs

There are a total of 4 legs, all worked as the same. They are all started with an adjustable magic ring and crocheted in rounds counterclockwise. There need to change colors during the process. After completion, add stuffing and sew the legs onto the corresponding position of the main part.
