Crochet George Pig – Part 1 - My Little Crochet World

As I did crochet Peppa Pig before, I think it’s time for her little brother 😊 That’s why today I am going to share with you crochet George pig pattern.

This pattern will be made out of two posts, as I personally think it is a bit too much to fit in one post. In the first part we are going to work on the head and face features, and in the second part we will be working on the body and it’s assembly (you can find second part here).

Size of this finished crochet George pig from head to toes is approximately 23cm or 9 inches. Pattern is absolutely free and easy to follow.

I hope you’ll enjoy this pattern and leave me some feedback below 😊🥰😘
