Crochet terms and abbreviations The pattern is worked using US Crochet Terms. Conversions to UK terms are shown below in parentheses: • mr – magic ring (UK=magic ring) • sc – single crochet (UK=double crochet) • inc(sc) – increase in single crochet (UK=increase in double crochet) • dec(sc) – decrease in single crochet (UK=decrease in double crochet) • fo – fasten off (UK=fasten off)

Final size About 3.9 in. (10 cm.) tall if you use sport weight yarn and a 2.5 mm. crochet hook.

Supplies • Sport weight yarn in colors: o Lime green o Sky blue • 2.5 mm. crochet hook • Two (8 mm.) safety eyes • Yarn needle, stitch markers and scissors • Stuffing material of your choice

Notes • This toy is worked in rounds, without joining the rounds. Use a stitch marker so you know where a round begins. • Crochet very tight, so the toy keep its shape and stuffing won’t show through the stitches. • You can make a bigger toy by using a larger size of hook and a thicker yarn (adjust the size of the eyes too). • Customize your baby dinosaur! You can crochet the spikes using a different color of yarn for each, add some eyelashes, a cute bow, etc. This pattern is for personal use only.
