Baby Giraffe

I’ve been working on Christmas gifts (can you believe we only have 2 1/2 mo. left?!  ag!)  I found this really cute (FREE!)  pattern for a crocheted baby giraffe.  I wanted to use yarn from my stash, so if I could do it again, I would change the colors a little. 

He’s only about 7 inches tall, and I got him done in a couple hours (spaced apart over a couple nights… about 2 Project Runway Episodes)

He’s a really good project for a beginner.  if you know how to chain and do a single crochet, you can totally make him!

My favorite parts of him are his cute little ears and mane.

Max likes his arms (sorry baby- you can have him at Christmas!)

Oh, so cute. I might just be able to do it. If I do, I'll have you on speed dial to talk me through what everything means.
