Notes:

This pattern is written in UK terms and instructions are given in the round. US terms are given below in the ‘Abbreviations’ section.

You will work in a spiral, similar to amigurumi. This means you will not join the end of each round with the beginning unless explicitly stated.

Abbreviations:

DC = UK double crochet (US = single crochet)

Ch = chain

Ch-sp = Chain space

St = stitch

Sts = stitches

SlSt = slipstich

TC = UK treble crochet (US = double crochet)

You will need:

• 3.5mm crochet hook (I use a KnitPro Waves hook which you can get here)

• 75m (82yards) of any Orange DK Weight yarn. I used Stylecraft Special DK in Jaffa.
