Pep pa pig amigurumi 13 inch height
I created this pig specifically for my beloved granddaughter, Sara, as she adores Pep pa Pig. That’s why I put in so much effort to ensure it was perfectly made. I searched tirelessly on the internet for a suitable pattern but couldn’t find one that satisfied me. However, I persevered and continued trying until I finally came across the perfect design. The moment I saw Sara’s face light up as she gazed at my pig creation, I knew I had done a great job. Thank you, Sara, you will always hold a special place in my heart as my favorite.
