• Materials Needed: Light green, dark green, and chocolate brown acrylic yarn, a 2.25mm crochet hook, safety eyes (optional), and fiberfill stuffing.
  • Step-by-Step Construction: Using dark green yarn, chain an oval base and work around both sides in continuous rounds, increasing at the ends. Switch to light green in the inner rounds to create the flesh, stuffing firmly before decreasing to a flat back. For the pit, use brown yarn in a magic ring and work a spherical shape, stuffing it fully before closing. Secure the pit to the center of the light green cavity using a secure thread tether so it remains interactive.
  • Pro Tips & Variations: Add embroidered rosy pink cheeks using lightweight embroidery thread just beneath the safety eyes to maximize the cute factor.
