THIS LISTING IS FOR THE PDF PATTERN ONLY.

Fake eye lashes (optional) **Hooks required** 2.50 mm **Size** By using this yarn and hook sizes your finished Donkey will be roughly 38cm/16inches in height 30 cm/12 inches in length 15cm/6 inches in width **Useful items** Stitch markers Stitch counter Darning needle This pattern uses US terms, Ch = chain stitch Sc = single crochet Hdc = half double crochet Dc = double crochet Tr = treble crochet Inc= single crochet increase Dec = single crochet decrease FLO = Front loop only BLO = Back loop only If you are planning to make your Donkey in a heavier weight yarn, adjust your hook size accordingly. Use the smallest hook size possible for the weight of yarn that you are using. We need the stitches tight so the stuffing doesn’t show too much between stitches.
I recommend making a test motif to gauge tension. This pattern is written in English. The pattern is delivered by digital instant download.
