Suggestions on the size for wooden ring?
Hello. Thank you for sharing this wonderful pattern. I was wondering if you have a giraffe doll along with this pattern? If so, can you share it with me. Hope to hear back to you soon.
Hi , your works are really amazing. Im beginner and i want to chrochet this rattle in smaller size . Can you help me please?is it good if i continue to round 6?
Please use thinner yarn and smaller hook, in that case your toy will be smaller.
It concerns me that you use plastic safety eyes on baby items. They really are not safe for children who chew and put things in their mouths. They do pull out of stitches and have a point that can damage them if they swallow it even with the back on
If you read it properly, you’ll see she highly recommends embroidering eyes if child is under 3.
Can i mix this and head of cuddle me fox? I just don’t know if head would be big enough? I hope that you understand what I mean.
Yes, you can 🙂 But please adjust the size of the ring according to the fox head.
Hi, I bought the pattern to do this lovely rattle toy. If I credit you as the designer, may I sell the finished products online? Thank you for your answer 🙂
Hi Ioana, yes, you can sell finished toys, but no more than 50 items per month.
I bought the pattern for the Forest Spirit. But I’m confused where I start the legs. Do I crochet 9 and make the leg. Then count 18 and make nine and crochet other legal. But the legs look bigger.
Buenas tardes.
Que calidad de hilo o lana debo utilizar.

Cotton or semi cotton yarn
