Crochet Fox Wall Hanging Pattern

List of Materials:

• 3mm crochet hook,
• DK yarn of your preference. I used Mondial Merino, colors light pink, red, beige and brown.
• Sewing needle,
• A little stuffing material hypoallergenic polyester,
• Scissors
• 2 pieces of round wooden stick (38cm / 15inch).

Finish size

Using a 3mm crochet hook and light, the finished size must be around 30cm width x 38 length (11.5 inch x 15 inch).

Gauge

Using DK-weight Merino yarn and a 3 mm hook, 4×4 inches (10cm x 10cm) should equal 20sc and 23rows.

Instructions for the Chart

1. The chart’s working direction is left to right, where the odds rows are the right side and evens the wrong side.
2. After every row, turn the work and chain 1 before starting the next row.
3. The main color (light pink) is crocheted with 2 separate skeins from row 5 to 75.
4. For red and brown colors, you can choose to work with a separate skein or carry the yarn under each other.
5. When working on the wrong side (even rows), always pull the yarn to the front of the work when doing the color change!
