Gussie is a small sweet goose who loves flowers and enjoys using them as hats. If you are looking for a simple project to make under an hour then this one's for you, I think it is the perfect size for a keychain but of course it's your choice.
So for gussie I used a 3 mm crochet hook, stuffing, tapestry needle and Dk yarn: white, orange, green, flower color (I did lilac), a bit of black and pink.
The finished doll is going to measure 11 cm / 4,3 inch approx.
