NOTES * This pattern is for your personal use only. Please do not copy, reproduce, alter, publish, or distribute this pattern in any way. You may sell finished products made with this pattern. * The difficulty level is beginner/intermediate. * Use a stitch marker or a piece of yarn to mark the end of a round unless otherwise noted. Move the marker up after completing each round. * Do not crochet too tightly around the curves of the ovals on the face or the snout or the oval will curl up. * On the ears and the horns, your work will naturally curl inwards. You’ll want to push the centers up, so the magic circle tail yarns are tucked into the “pockets”.
