TIPS

• Gauge is not important for this project. You can use any type of yarn you want; however, you
should use a slightly smaller sized hook than is recommended by the yarn label.
(Pippi is 25-26 cm tall when made with indicated yarn and hook but your size may vary depending
on your yarn & hook size.)
• I always use an invisible decrease which makes the decreases look smoother and does not leave
any gaps in the work.
• Always work in continuous rounds unless otherwise stated. This means you do not join at the end
of each round. So always use stitch markers!
• I used ‘yarn under hook’ rather than ‘yarn over hook’ but it’s completely up to you.
• Do not use safety eyes if you’re making this toy for a child under three; it’s safer to use black
embroidery thread to make the eyes.
• When you’re changing colors, always join the new color in the last stitch of the previous color.
• Don’t forget to stuff your work tightly as you go.
• The number before a stitch means you’ll be making that stitch in the following indicated number
of stitches. (4sc means you’ll make 1 sc for the next 4 stitches.)
• I used a 2.00 mm hook for everything except the dress. That one I made with the 2.50 mm hook.

Now, let’s start crocheting!
