pattern notes

This pattern is worked in continuous rounds using US crochet terms

This pattern assumes you're familiar with crochet and crochet patterns to some extent. If you're a complete beginner and need some extra guidance to get started, I recommend checking out some crochet tutorials on YouTube!

*Use as many or as few yarn colors as you'd like! Pictured above, I've made both solid and multicolor worry pets!

**Use whatever safety eyes you think look good and place them however you want! These give your worry pet personality, so there's no one right way to do it. For my worry pets, I place the eyes between rounds 6-7 about 3-4 stitches apart, use anywhere from 9mm to 12mm safety eyes!

You may sell worry pets you make with this pattern! All I ask is that you credit me 🧡
