Mo the Moose Crochet Pattern

MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT:

ABBREVIATIONS:

The pattern is written in US crochet terms.

• ch(-s). – chain(s)
• sc – single crochet
• Rnd(s) – round(s)
• st(s). – stitch(es)
• st. – slip stitch
• incr – increase (2 sc worked into 1 ch)
• decr – decrease (2 sc crocheted together)

DESCRIPTION:

• All details are worked in spiral rounds without joining, unless otherwise stated.
• The finished amigurumi is about 7” tall, if made with indicated yarn weight and hook size.
