Daniel the Lion

Meet Daniel, a little lion who loves to lounge around and snuggle up with a good friend.

He can be made in any yarn and hook combination you want. Just be certain that the fabric is firm enough that stuffing does not show through.

My Daniel is made in Vanna’s Choice Solids using two colors:

Duckie: (95 yards)

Terracotta (15 yards)

Daniel is an advanced beginner-level pattern. Skills you will need include single crochet (plus half-double crochet, double crochet, and treble crochet for the mane), increases, decreases, joining new yarn in the front loop of a stitch, and some seaming.

The pattern has plenty of progress photos to help you along your way to making your little lion.
