Presenting...the smaller ugly duckling! Very original name, I know. I was going to make the Ugly Duckling (http://www.freepatterns.com/fp_pdfs/Other/Crochet/The_Ugly_Duckling.pdf) from freepatterns.com, then realized it was way bigger than I wanted - so I designed one that looked very similar, but was a bit smaller. It's just in time for Easter baskets!

You can check out the pattern by going to my blog (http://toomanyhooks.mycrochetblog.com/) and clicking on the 'free patterns' link to the right of the page, then clicking on the thumbnail of the duckie.

Too much work? Fine, here's the direct link (http://toomanyhooks.mycrochetblog.com/?page_id=102)... I just like it when people read my blog... ;)

He's a cutie! Looks easier than the one I was working on. I gave up on it when I couldn't figure out the legs.
