SOOOO Cute! Reviewed by Idania Cater on 2008-05-08
I absoulutely loved making this baby piglet! (My other Lion Brand pig was lonely!)It took me a day to make-about four hours-a great pattern for beginners...and also a great gift! The only thing I was not so pleased with is this: this little piglet is the same size (or taller) than the pig...and last time I checked: the piglet IS supposed to be shorter...not such a big problem, really. Overall, very very cute! I would most definitely make this one again! (By the way, if you plan on making the pig and the piglet then only buy the amount of yarn needed for the pig--it lasts for both the pig and TWO piglets!!)
