Pocket Dino

Pocket Dinos are legendary for their love of partying. They organize epic dance-offs and they spin tunes using leaves as turntables. Creatures of all shapes and sizes are welcome to their celebration.

Skill Level: Advanced Beginner

This no-sew pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions and  pictures to help you along the way. Pocket Dino is crocheted in the round/continuous spirals without joining the rounds. I suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Pocket Dino is crocheted in super bulky chenille yarn and is approximately 3 inches tall from top of biggest spike. Be aware that size may vary depending on the yarn and hook size used. Gauge is not particularly important, just be consistent with the tension you are using. And most importantly, have fun!
