Bandit the Raccoon

Bandit is your sneaky nocturnal friend with a dirty habit of Dumpster diving. Your trash is his treasure! Dress him in a trench coat (pattern included) so he can do his night prowling incognito.

It helps to be familiar with amigurumi and basic embroidery techniques to complete him successfully. However, I’ve supplied ample descriptions and photos, so even if you don’t consider yourself seasoned you should be able to follow along. Be sure you are comfortable crocheting in continuous rounds with the magic ring technique before you begin.
