I’m confused by the instructions for the body. Is there any chance you could post step by step pictures to have it make more sense?
I made this with weight 4 yarn and 4.25mm crochet hook, it turned out double the size of the photo. I could not understand the instructions for the body, so I just guessed how it would be done and that somewhat worked. It’s difficult to explain, but after connecting the two little legs, I crocheted my first row around the perimeter of leg 1, across one side of the chain, around leg 2, and across the chain again. This resulted in 24 stitches, I did this for a total of 8 (24 sts) rows and then decreased for rows 9 (22 sts), 10 (20 sts), 11 (18 sts), like the original instructions. Hope this can clarify things if you try and make this pattern!
For those confused about legs to body – I tweaked the writing like so and it helped me under stand. “Make the second leg.
Don’t cut the yarn when you’ll finish the 2nd leg; you will be joining it to the 1st leg and start crocheting the body from there.
Body
Crochet 5 ch from the 2nd leg and join it with the 1st leg.”
So do I cut the yarn for the first leg?
