The soft, rounded form of Rowlet not only brings comfort but also serves as an adorable decorative piece for your home or office.

For this project, we’ll be using soft, worsted weight yarn in three complementary colors: a rich moss green for Rowlet’s body, a crisp white for its belly, and a warm caramel for its beak and feet.

4. Designer Notes / Tips

As you work on this plushie, pay special attention to your stitch technique. Using tight stitches will help maintain the shape of Rowlet, especially if you choose to use lighter stuffing. When stuffing, aim for a medium density; you want Rowlet to be soft but still hold its form without sagging.

During assembly, it’s best to attach the safety eyes before you close up the head to ensure the placement is correct. If you prefer to use embroidery thread for eyes, consider stitching them on after stuffing to avoid any stuffing obstruction.

For yarn substitutions, any similar worsted weight yarn in your preferred colors will work well. Just be sure to match your tension to maintain the size of the plushie. If you’re new to crochet, use a stitch marker to help maintain your stitch count and keep track of your rounds while you work.
