Notes and tips:

• Use a stitch marker to keep track of rounds and avoid gaps in the joins.
• Bulky chenille yarn gives this pig its soft, squishy texture — adjust stuffing to reach your preferred firmness.
• Leave long tails for sewing pieces together and hide ends inside the body for a neat finish.
