Tube Snake

I really enjoy making stuffed animal toys. This is a unique design that I made. It is crocheted in single crochet as a single continuous piece of fabric that starts as the small tube of the tail/body and expands and bifurcates into the head and jaw. I was very pleased by the outcome of the shape. The red hat is a simple disk of single crochet and is currently not attached so it can be adjusted for different poses.

My rather limited drawing capabilities left me disappointed with the embroidered features of the face of the Tube Snake. Recently I discovered that pre-made sew-on eyes are available in the fabric shop, so in the future, I will be experimenting with them...
