Is The Fox Rattle Easy Enough For Beginners?
The Ferdi the Fox & Walt the Wolf Rattle can be made by beginners. However, you should know how to work stitches in the round and sew amigurumi pieces together. You will start by crocheting the head and then working the balls as you go. Once you have the rattle body ready, you can finish it up with extra details like ears, muzzle, and eyes.
What Yarn Should You Use For The Fox Rattle?
Work this crochet baby rattle pattern with light DK-weight yarn and a 2.75 mm hook. You can use your favorite cotton yarn that is natural, easy to clean, and soft. For the fox, be sure to use orange shades, and if you’re after making the wolf, go for greys. You will also need small bits of black thread to embroider the eyes and nose of the toy.
How Big Is The Finished Fox Rattle?
A crochet rattle made with recommended supplies measures about 7.5 inches. It’s the perfect size for little ones and their tiny hands. Hence, the rattle will work great as the first toy for babies aged three to six months.
