Free Pattern viewable on my blog here

---

The Baby Mouse in Basket pattern includes instructions for a little, newborn mouse, his Moses basket bed, and a leaf blanket. This sweet amigurumi set is a fun pretend play toy for young children to practice bedtime routines. The baby mouse fits perfectly inside of the basket, nesting under his leaf blanket, and kids will enjoy putting the young animal to sleep. It is relatively quick to work up given its size and makes a wonderful gift for girls and boys like.
