Sleepy Dino

Well it is indeed a happy new year! My friend is about to have her first baby and while I’ve had my fingers crossed the baby will be a healthy and chubby little ball of cute, I’ve also been working on my first ever baby toy!

Meet the Sleepy Dino!

It’s made out of 100% cotton yarn and measures about 40cm from head to tail. Which should make a nice toy for my friend’s little one to grow up with!

The pattern used was a little bit complicated in the beginning as it is worked continuously in the round. But lots of careful stitch marker use and intense concentration got me through! If you are a crocheter yourself you can find the pattern for free over at The Button Ship.

And just for good measure here’s one more picture, all ready to travel:
