Colors (for the piglets and wolf): I used Hobbii yarns

- Pink: Hobbii Old Rosa
- White: Hobbii Nature
- Contrasting colors: Hobbii Steel Blue, Hobbii Common Liliac and Hobbii Green
- Light gray: Hobbii Gray
- Dark Gray: Hobbii Dark Gray
- Mustard yellow: Hobbii Sunny Yellow

Finished size:
From head to toe, the pigs and the wolf measure 14 cm approximately.
Of course, should you choose a different hook and yarn, final measures will vary.

And finally...

corresponding front loop (60)

41. Crochet *1 slst, 1 sc, 1 hdc + 1 dc + 1 hdc in the same st, 1 sc*, repeat * all the way through.

2. to 5. Chain1 and turn. Crochet 8 sc.

Before closing, we will do the edges. Chain 1 to turn the piece 90 degrees clockwise and crochet
5 sc along the side of the piece, working in the spaces between rows. When you reach the top edge,
crochet 8 sc in the remaining loops of the foundation chain. Then chain 1
to turn the piece 90 degrees clockwise again and crochet 5 sc along the other side of the piece,
once again working in the spaces between rows.
Close and break the yarn, leaving a long tail to sew to the basket.

Assembly
- Sew the door to the basket
- With a bit of green yarn, embroider the grass to the sides of the door. And with some red, embroider some
flowers too!
