\"image1(10)\"<\/a>Here comes a new free crochet pattern from my series „animal with kid“. This time I designed a lion father with his teenage son for my wildlife-mobile-project. Best about this amigurumi pattern is, that you can easily turn father into mother and son into daughter by leaving out the mane, if you want. So here we go:<\/p>\n

You’ll need:<\/p>\n

Cotton yarn in orange and a slightly too small crochet hook. I used drops Muskat and a 2.5mm hook<\/p>\n

Crochet yarn in yellow. I used Rico Essentials Crochet and a 0.75mm hook<\/p>\n

Cotton yarn in red<\/p>\n

Bits and pieces of black cotton yarn and black crochet yarn for noses<\/p>\n

4mm safety eyes<\/p>\n

soft stuffing<\/p>\n

comb<\/p>\n
