This little guy was made as a freebie on my blog in 2009. I tried making this one with a bit of a heart shape. If you shop at Target* you would have seen that little pink Owl pillow with similar Pink and Red colors. This was my inspiration for this little guy.

Materials: G hook, Redheart Red (1 small skein), Tapestry needle, Fiber fill stuffing, 2 safety eyes, white yarn (scraps)

Around 5 inches High

Ear #2

I was making a monster for my pattern shop K and J Dolls. My children said they liked the “rabbit”. For halloween I added a hat and broomstick. Is it a monster, rabbit or witch? I do not know but it is very cute.

This pattern can be made using any yarn you wish. Choose a hook size that matches the yarn.

I used:

• 3.00 mm hook
• 4 ply yarn (Light pink, dark pink for inner ear, Red and green for hat)
• Polyester fiber
• Black 10 mm buttons for eyes or other eyes as desired
• Tapestry needle
• Sewing needle and thread for attaching eyes
• Iron Wire 7 inches

6 inches tall
