This hippopotamus is a great companion for an imaginative adventure.





Materials

I Love This Cotton or other medium weight yarn

Color A Turquoise

Color B Aqua

Hook size F (3.75 mm)

Toy stuffing material

Your choice of eyes

Felt (optional for nostrils and teeth)

Cross stitch plastic canvas (optional to flatten feet)

Pipe cleaner for tail tassel (optional) yarn description also available

Tapestry or large sewing needle

This pattern works up quickly and since the gauge does not need to be matched exactly the overall size can be changed by adjusting yarn weight and hook size.
