Fergus the Fox

Typical of all foxes, Fergus is bright eyed and bushy tailed and rather bushy around the cheeks too. Fergus loves the outdoors and can often be found running wild over open fields or through the woods. He’s also just as comfortable roaming the urban and suburban streets, being sure to wake you from your slumber every now and again as he knocks over a dustbin or two searching for a tasty treat.

When using light worsted weight (DK/8 ply) yarn and a 3mm hook, fox measures approx. 10" (28cm) tall.  Large fox was made with worsted weight (aran/10 ply) yarn, a 3.5 mm hook and 12 mm safety eyes.  Medium fox was made with light worsted weight (double knit/8 ply) yarn, a 3 mm hook and 10 mm safety eyes. 

Smallest fox was made with sport weight (sock/4 ply) yarn, a 2 mm hook and 8 mm safety eyes.
