rough pattern: used "i love this yarn" worsted wt. yellow yarn and big twist worsted wt. black + 3.5mm hook, final size is ~2.5 in x 2.5 in x 2.5 in, give or take ~0.5 in depending on how much you stuff/squish note: this isnt how i actually made it LOL im making it a little less bullshat for y'all <2

key: - sc = single crochet - dc = double crochet - hdc = half double crochet - inc = single crochet increase - dc = single crochet increase - [x]sst = do x in the same stitch (ex. inc = [2sc]sst)

body (yellow)

r1: magic circle, 6sc in magic circle (6) r2: 6inc (12) r3: [sc, inc] x6 (18) r4: [2 sc, inc] x6 (24) r5: [3sc, inc] x6 (30) r6-r8: 30sc (30) r9: [dec, 13sc] x2 (28) r10: [5sc, dec] x4 (24) r11: 24sc r12: 6sc, 2sc, dec, [3sc, dec] x2, 2sc, dec (20) r13: 20sc (20) r14: 6sc, dec, [2sc, dec] x2, 2sc, dec (16) r15: 4sc, dec, [sc, dec] x2, 2sc, dec (12) stuff, (optional) add squeaker (i sacrificed a dog toy for mine <2) r16: 6dec (6) fasten off and use tail to close hole (i usually do a whip stitch type thing through all the loops and pull tight, then stitch across the hole a few times, and then either stuff the tail inside somehow or weave it in)

face (black)

r1: magic circle, 6sc in magic circle (6) r2: inc, [dc, sc]sst, inc, [hdc, sc]sst, inc, [dc, sc]sst (12) r3: 2sc, [sc, dc]sst, [hdc, sc]sst, 2sc, [sc, hdc]sst, [hdc, sc]sst, 2sc, [sc, dc]sst, [hdc, sc]sst (18) should be about an isosceles triangle, the longer side is the bottom

sew to body from between row 11 and 12 to between row 15 and 16, aligning it along the longer stretches of scs on those rows
