Hello, everyone!
I've slowly been going through my most popular patterns to update them and correct any mistakes. If you find an issue in any of my patterns, feel free to leave a comment and I'll correct it when I have time!
Each of these next three patterns are made using Bernat Blanket yarn. I suggest that you use the recommended yarns, as I haven't tested with any other materials or weights.
If you do try out a different yarn, be sure to let me know how it went in the comments!

Glue the eyes together, and stick them on your Charmander.

At this point I made the flame for the tail. I took acrylic yarn in orange, yellow, and red, and unraveled it giving it a looser, softer look, I tied a large knot in it, and put it through the magic loop in the tip of the tail. If the loop was still too loose I tightened it at this point.
I then sewed the tail on, and cut the beige felt to size to cover the tummy and underside of the tail. Then I just glued it on.
