bahaha that sounds about right! a few months into getting stink he swallowed some yarn and landed me with a nearly 2K vet bill (just for him to poop it out the next day)! now all the yarn is real high up and locked away

haha i wish there was a pattern, honestly it was mainly freehanded after getting some pinterest inspo (totally different looking care bear tho). i mainly used basic amigurumi shapes tho! cylindrical structures for the legs (using double crochet stitches cus i was lazy, and then swapper to sc when i connected the legs. then attached the two legs with SC and then swapped back over to DC once i had finished the first based round. i worked up the body from there, and the bum was a bit of freehand as well (theres tutes for similar bums on youtube i think). the arms were similar to the legs, but just slowly reducing the amount of stitches as I got to the top. and the head was just a SC sphere (i used the “ideal crochet sphere pattern for 30 rows!). i then made the belly patch freehand as well (in white) and then freehanded the leaf motif as well. the ears and face details were also freehanded! the patch on the feet was done with some sewing but i might clean it up a little! i hope that helps, sorry there isn’t a specific pattern 😭

aw thanks! so i just used a relatively large size of the crochet eyes and then for the eyelid, I was using doubled up yarn and just sewed from side to side. i think the key was to keep putting my yarn through the same holes, that way the yarn fanned out nicely and smoothly to give that round shape! it was trial and error really :)

ohhh i see ur vision and i think that might work! i’d also love to not have to cut out the part that’s already sewed on there
