this is NOT a plushie, you will be getting a PDF PATTERN with instructions to make the cow, not a physical plushie. This pattern is made for beginners / intermediate crocheters. It includes the stitches decrease, increase, single crochet, slip stitch, and half double crochet. I used premier parfait yarn chunky in the colors white and brown, and bernat crushed velvet in the color velvet for this cow.
