A cute little mouse, Carrie stands just 6 inches tall when completed (15 cm) Her pattern has easy to follow instructions with lots of reference photos and includes making her cute shirt and headband.
She is best made in a short pile fur but I've seen her made beautifully in a simple cotton fabric too.
Her pattern includes instructions with an option to pluck and hand shade her face (a sparse fur is best for this : )
Previous experience of soft toy making may be helpful.
