Furthermore this pattern and all the images contained inside this pattern are not authorized to be sold as a cross stitch pattern or shared in full on any cross stitch site st = stitch sc = single crochet 2tog = 2 stitches together ch1 = chain one sl st = slip stitch f/o = finish off What I used to make the Duck: worsted weight yarn medium #4 7.5mm safety eyes (8mm will work fine too) 4.00 or 4.25 mm hook yarn needle red felt marker for cheeks Special notes: I worked in continuous rounds with a 4.00 mm hook and worsted weight yarn. The duck came out to about 5.9 or so inches tall and I also used a 4.25 mm hook which gave me a slightly taller duck.

Also make sure you are putting the eyes in the right side of the head. Refer to the video if you are having difficulty. I find it also helps to stuff the head and then decide where the eyes will go, push them in to make a little hole or dot the spot with a pen then take out the stuffing and put in the eyes.

*stuff and shape as you stuff and making sure to stuff those cheeks! Put your thumb in between the cheeks, this will help you shape the face as you stuff. Don't worry about completely stuffing the face now because you can stuff more in as you continue to close up the hole. Refer to video for help with stuffing. 18) 1sc in next 2st then 2tog (18) 19) 1sc in next st then 2tog (12) 20) 2tog 6 times (6) f/o and hide the yarn tail inside the head. Check over the face and make sure you are happy with the way it looks. Using a stuffing stick, put more stuffing into the cheeks if need be.

You can bend the tip of the tail upwards after you sew the tail onto the body. Sew the tail so the under side of the tail is level with the bottom of the body.
