Scooter the Wooble Raccoon

My grandson in Oklahoma is really into these crocheted critters. Scooter the raccoon is listed as beginner level easy, but I will admit the fussy parts such as the face mask, the snout the ears and the tail do require a bit of patience as these parts are all crocheted separately and then sewn onto the main egg body. Here is Scooter before his tail and ears are attached and before his ears are embroidered.


This kit had the additional skill of changing colors. The white top on the black mask and the tail are where this skill comes into play. I got extra practice on the gray and black striped tail. Black would not be my color of first choice for a beginner because, being so dark, it is difficult to distinguish the individual stitches. Even the tutorial advised to have good lighting. I persevered, and here is my completed Scooter the Raccoon. I will admit, sewing on the ears and embroidering them took deep concentration, but came out fine.


Scooter is my fifth Wooble kit completion. Here are my other four Woobles with links to each's respective dated blog post. Wooble kits really are fun and can truly be accomplished by a beginner crocheter. Some are easier than others, though, so I hope my descriptions can help you pick out your first one to crochet.
