1 The Cranky Angel This is the pattern for Buddy's nemesis/best friend, the Cranky Angel. Scroll down past the pattern for a short Cranky Angel comic. The Cranky Angel Size 8cm/3in tall, 7cm/2 ¾in wide Skill Level Easy. Note on yarn and hook size I crochet with a light worsted (DK) weight yarn. You can use a slightly heavier or lighter yarn as long as you use the same type of yarn for the different colours. This will ensure your toy is in proportion. Use a hook size that will give you a nice firm stitch. The 3.00mm is my favourite hook. Materials 1 of 6 21/5/18, 10:56 pm

Make him cranky! Cut out a v shape from black felt for the brows of the angel.

Use black sewing cotton or embroidery floss to stitch in a mouth.

5 Make him cranky! Cut out a v shape from black felt for the brows of the angel. Attach above the eyes using needle and thread or glue. Give him a mouth. Use black sewing cotton or embroidery floss to stitch in a mouth. You could use black yarn but I think it looks a little too bold against the cream of the angel. Yay! Your Cranky Angel is now complete. Treat him well - even a cranky angel needs a hug now and then ;) Are you curious to know what happens when you mess with the Cranky Angel? Take a look at what happened to poor Buddy... Copyright Kim Lapsley of 6 21/5/18, 10:56 pm
