Crocheted 'Poo' I've been told this one makes a nice potty training helper. A very cute item to add to your toy collection. Makes a unique gift too!

worsted yarn, stuffing, yarn needle for sewing, stitch marker (I use a small bobby pin), crafters glue, small amount of felt for facial features, and a pair of 'wiggly eyes'
finished size: about 5" tall
gauge: 7sc=2" 2rows=1"
Do Not join rounds unless specified, use a stitch marker and move after each rnd is complete

rnd 2: *2sc* arnd (16sc)
rnd 3: *sc, 2sc* (24sc)

stuff now
you won't need the stitch marker anymore

dc in same st, 2dc in next 2 sts, hdc in next 4sts, sc in last sts, join to top of first ch 3
rnd 20: ch 2, hdc in next 4sts (leave the remainder of sts unworked)
finish off leaving a long end for sewing
stuff a bit more, then sew closed
take the wiggly eyes and glue them near rnds 9&10
with felt cut 2 small circles and glue those to one side of each eye
cut a small piece for mouth and glue that under the eyes
enjoy :o)
