CROCHET PATTERN Ken The Chubby Little Koala

Ken the koala is a very fussy eater and he almost never skips his naps. However, when it comes to friends, he is accepting of everyone and can never have enough. Make a little koala from bulky weight yarn (5) or a tiny koala from medium weight yarn (4); your finished size will depend on the yarn choice. This pattern is written row-by-row using US crochet terms, along with crochet diagrams, step-by-step photos, and a conversion chart to UK terms.
