Everything You Need to Get Started
To make your crocheting experience as seamless as possible, this pattern includes a complete list of all the supplies you’ll need. Gather your favorite tools and coziest yarn, and get ready to begin your magical crafting adventure!
Essential Materials & Tools:
- Yarn Type: We recommend a Bulky / Category 5 yarn to achieve the plush, cuddly size. Think vibrant reds for the lobster body and contrasting neutrals like brown, beige, or grey for the owl features to make them pop.
- Crochet Hook Size: A 4mm (G-6) crochet hook is the perfect partner for your bulky yarn, helping you create tight, even stitches so none of the stuffing peeks through.
- Other Essentials: You’ll also need soft polyester fiberfill for stuffing, a pair of safety eyes to give your creation its soulful expression, handy stitch markers to keep your place, sharp scissors, and a trusty tapestry needle for weaving in ends and assembling your new friend.
