It took me about 4 hours to make the pieces, but would probably take less with a larger hook and looser tension. About 5 1/2 total hours with assembly.
I've decided to change the belly patch color to Bernat Blanket Orchid to match the purple eyes I gave my Tad.
Starting on 3/14/23 Using Bernat Blanket White and Seafoam approx 60 yds (6 weight) Size H/8/5.0mm
