    the 'focus' is called a facial disc, it helps funnel sounds toward their ears

    Thank you so much for making this video! I learned so much! If you ever have the time, as I can imagine it can be time consuming, a series of this kind of "design your own" videos would be amazing. Like, explaining how increases and decreases work to give shape to something like dog and cat-like amigurumi or the reptile ones. I'm in love

    This was such a hoot, you had me perched on the edge of my seat the whole time. I really appreciate the market stall comment, eggcellent for those of looking to grow a nest egg.
    Would you have any further advice for fledgling crochet sellers?
    I think my first pattern will be a Godzilla, (using your creation method of course!) and this gave me some good ideas for cracking the detail dilemma.
    Can’t wait for your next creation/tutorial/tips. (Removed a double use of a pun. 😅)

    This pattern was amazing and so easy to follow!!! Thank you for sharing your design.
    I made the owl with the widest area of 84 stitches and the features were super easy to adapt to the bigger version for anyone who has done the same size as me or bigger i found this pattern on the internet for the beck so it was a bit more to scale.
    Round 1. Work 6 sc inside the MC. (6 sts)
    Round 2. 6 inc. (12 sts)
    Round 3. (1 inc, 1 sc) 6 times. (18 sts)
    Round 4-6. 18 sc. (18 sts)
    Round 7. 2 sc, 1 inv dec, (4 sc, 1 inv dec) twice, 2 sc. (15 sts)
    Start stuffing your raindrop.
    Round 8. (1 inv dec, 3 sc) three times. (12 sts)
    Round 9. 1 sc, 1 inv dec, (2 sc, 1 inv dec) twice, 1 sc. (9 sts)
    Add more stuffing if needed.
    Round 10. (1 inv dec, 1 sc) three times. (6 sts)
    Round 11. 3 inv dec. (3 sts)
    The free pattern is from Raffamusa designs this size beck was perfect for the owl
    Again this owl pattern was so amazing and easy to follow!
