This pig is super quick, easy, and fun! You’re likely to make more than one.
This little pig is made all in one piece, so there’s no sewing involved! We start at the nose, work into the head, then the body, and finally the tail. We use special stitches to make the arms and the ears. Don’t worry, they’re explained with descriptions and photos once we get to them.
Head:
In Pink
To start the pig, we make the head which works into the body. The head, ears, arms/legs, and tail are all made in one piece.

Finish off. Sew closed.
Mud
In Brown
You can sew on little mud spots to your pig. You can do this in any way you’d like, or you can follow my instructions on how I did it. Mud is messy though, so of course it doesn’t have to be perfect!
Insert needle with thread into the back of the pig and pull needle out 2 stitches above. Reinsert needle into the same areas. Insert needle into the original insertion spot and pull needle out a little to the right. Reinsert needle into the same areas 2 times. Sew anywhere else you think may need it. Tie a knot with both ends of yarn and weave them into the pig to hide.

All Finished.
