I made this as a gift, but long story short I don’t have the right yarn colours or the right sized hook or the right eyes. So I improvised. Hoping it still reads as the animal I intended!

Ps. The recipient knows my current status and why I can’t procure the correct yarn, etc. They’ll still appreciate it I’m sure.

Llama/alpaca? My first thought was a lovely little lamb. Regardless, it’s adorable.

The eyes remind me of lamb chop! But it’s a capybara.

Splendid! I was going to say a lamb, but the extra-large head made me think longer.

Will share the pattern here after after a guess or two!

Edit: u/Zeppo guessed it! I feel less worried now.

Pattern is here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/capibara-2

It’s free on Ravelry, though it is in portuguese. If you have a little bit of familiarity with amigurumi construction though translation is a breeze.

I used this site to help me translate: https://oombawkadesigncrochet.com/portuguese-crochet-terms-and-u-s-crochet-terms/

Though it doesn’t seem to have am (which is magic ring)

Thanks everyone!
