What to focus on

Plan the letter height and leave enough space for neighboring letters. Follow one version at a time, paying attention to its rounded section and upright stroke. Keep the thread relaxed enough to avoid dents in the crochet.

Practice with Andy

Play the video once to see the result, then replay it in short sections as you work. Keep a small sample nearby to test the technique before using it on your finished plushie.
