He's way cute! (((((HUGS))))) sandi
ReplyDeleteThank you for this wonderful pattern for Hugger. I did notice that Row 11 - Body is missing. Could you advise what it should be.
ReplyDeleteJanet
Thank you very much and you're very welcome! I have been fighting the sniffles and watery eyes, accompanied by the occasional fit of sneezes, so I didn't notice the missing row.
ReplyDeleteThe pattern has been corrected and is alright now.
Thank you Janet for letting me know!

ReplyDeleteThank you! I love color and I KNOW that kids love it too, so I enjoy using it.
ReplyDeleteWaw this is a wonderful pattern. Thanks to share!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
ReplyDeleteDid I miss it or is it not there? The only thing I see about a tail is about sewing it on. Nothing about making the tail itself
ReplyDeleteHi Muffin. Hugger has a very short tail. Pattern has been updated.
