Perhaps note if pattern is in US or UK crochet terms?
The pattern, at least as far as I have reached, is good although it's in US terms which means I have to think a bit more and correct myself now and then as I process in UK terms most of the time. I'm thus finding it easier to follow the charts. I haven't split for the arms/body yet, I may get to that tonight or tomorrow, but it looks OK. It is certainly coming out pretty!
