Fuzzy Guinea Pig

An original crochet amigurumi Guinea Pig pattern by June Gilbank. **Yarn:** a fuzzy yarn (yarn advice is given in pattern) **Hook:** US E / 3.5mm and US H / 5mm **Size:** approx 9.5″ long by 4″ tall Details: The pattern includes full instructions to make single-colour or dual-colour guinea pigs and long haired or short haired guinea pigs! **Eye size:** 9mm **A note about 'Fuzzy' patterns:** When I created my ‘Fuzzy’ patterns, in 2007 and 2008, there were a lot of different eyelash and other fuzzy novelty-type yarns available in most yarn and craft stores. Sadly, most of them have now been discontinued and it can be difficult to find a suitable yarn. You could substitute a different fuzzy yarn, or try looking on eBay.com or ravelry.com for someone who may have eyelash yarn for sale. If you can't find any suitable fuzzy yarns, don't despair: all my 'Fuzzy' patterns include an additional PDF file showing how to work these patterns with a regular worsted weight yarn of your choice, and then either leave them smooth, or brush them to get a different, but still cute, fluffy effect! **Save money:** Take advantage of the savings when you buy any three Fuzzy Friends patterns of your choice as a [custom set][1]! *** > ***Please join us*** *in the [PlanetJune crochet designs > group](http://www.ravelry.com/groups/planetjune-crochet-designs) > - you can get pattern support, join crochet-alongs, show off your FOs, > suggest new designs, and chat.
