The fat just walks away... Adipose = Fat

Whovians know what an Adipose Baby is...we all want one.  They are so darn cute!  So today  I'm giving you an opportunity to have one of your own!  Don't crochet?  Here is the listing of my ready to go Adipose Baby =)

So darn cute!


Materials:

F hook (or hook needed to obtain a tight fabric)
small amount of white ww yarn (I used Red Heart Super Saver in Soft White)
Small amt of black (for mouth)
6mm safety eyes  (You can always embroider this with a bit of black yarn!)
tapestry needle (to attach limbs etc)
fiberfill


Abbreviations:

MR: magic ring
sl: slip
st: stitch
ch: chain
sc: single crochet
sc2tog: single crochet 2 together
f.o.: finish off
FLO: front loop only
BLO: back loop only

Note:
I use American terminology.  Be sure to read through the pattern before you begin.  If the pattern reads, "sc, 2sc, sc2tog" it would be read as "single crochet, 2 single crochet in next stitch, single crochet the next 2 stitches together".   I like to use "invisible decreases"- use FLO, it helps the fabric lie smoother.  Stuff your project as you progress.  Unless noted otherwise the Adipose Baby is worked in amigurumi style in the round without joining. Make sure you mark your rounds, a scrap piece of contrasting yarn works great!
 The Adipose Baby you make from my pattern is yours to do with as you please.  I ask that you please not distribute or represent my pattern as your own.  If you feel like sharing, please direct people to my blog :)  I like visitors!
