Hurka, the cylinder pig, was inspired by kneading together with my little son. When we shaped the figures together, the inspiration once came to see how to easily make a pig out of plasticine. As the little figure took shape, its companions were finally ready, and there was already a whole lot lined up on the table, I thought of how nice the crocheted version of the pig would be, so for the joy of this, this little pattern was made.
Because it is a simple but technical little pig. There are also three videos in the pattern of the little cylinder pig, which help beginners to get the little pig done step by step, but also learn something new while crocheting. It gives a sense of success not only because of its speed, but also because of the newly acquired technical knowledge!
