How to Make an Amigurumi Yeti
Betty the Yeti has never been like the rest! Her bright, rosy cheeks mean that she's always been the adorable outcast – too cute to cut it with her fellow yetis, and far too cuddly to hide away as a mysterious monster. She's been leaving her footprints all over the place, having travelled far and wide in search of a cosy home to curl up in!
Crochet the cute character to give her a happy home and put her cuddliness to good use.
