Loomigurumi Squirrel design by me. I was totally inspired to make this design by all the squirrels I keep seeing on my college campus. They are just everywhere and the aren't super afraid of people so that's scary. I know someone requested a squirrel design recently too so if that was you I hope you like it. This design is so cute but it is a little time consuming. there's also just a lot stuff going on in the rows. I tried my best to explain so hopefully it's not too bad. I don't think it's a difficult design it's just not a beginner friendly one. If you make a squirrel show it to me I would love to see it. I hope you guys like this tutorial :D
