Note: I worked in continuous rounds (vs. joined rounds). I strongly recommend checking out

my b log post here to see step-by-step photos and accompanying descriptions if you are

attempting to make this minion. This pattern is quite intricate and is recommended for those

with some amigurumi experience (not a beginners project). It takes some time to crochet all

the different parts, but itswell worth it in the end!

***Work on hair. Cut strands of yarn measuring about 2. Tie knots on one end. Pull yarn

through head so knot remains on underside. When finished adding hair, trim as needed. Rub

ends with glue to prevent fraying.
