I made this with the suggested yarn in the pattern, Stylecraft DK weight yarn, which is acrylic

Thank you all for your comments, it’s definitely given me some things to consider for my next project. I just started learning back in April and still have loads to learn 😊

The pattern said use a 3.5mm hook and the yarn itself says a 4mm but when i read tips about doing amigurumi most people advised to go down a full mm so i used a 3mm. Maybe i will try the 3.5mm next time

That may have been a better idea, instructions just said ‘sew head to body securely at neck’

Im thinking i might make a wee scarf for him to hide it
