Description
🦘 Aussie Door Snakes Vol 2 — 12 original crochet patterns (PDF, 40 pages).
Twelve more Australian favourites, stretched out long and put to work: each one is a crocheted door snake draft stopper about 90 cm long, with a padded animal head at one end and a sealed weight pouch along its base so it hugs the floor and stays exactly where you put it. From a tall-crested cassowary and a shaggy emu to a pink-and-grey galah, a smiling green tree frog and a fleecy merino lamb, this second Aussie collection mixes bush birds, nocturnal marsupials, farm friends and garden reptiles, from our Aussie family shop. Every design is an original Aussie door snake worked in worsted/aran yarn with a 4.0 mm hook.
This collection includes 12 original patterns: Emu, Cassowary, Brushtail Possum, Sugar Glider, Numbat, Bandicoot, Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo, Galah, Blue-Tongue Lizard, Green Tree Frog, Merino Lamb and Cow.
Each of the 12 patterns includes:
• Its own dedicated solo photo page — every pattern photographed individually
• Pattern-at-a-glance box (type, finished size, pieces, yarn, level)
• Full round-by-round instructions in US crochet terms, with the stitch count stated at the end of every round and row
• The pack's shared construction: a long body tube worked in rounds, a head built from an asserted increase/decrease ladder, and the animal's own ears, muzzle, beak, crest, fins or flippers
• Step-by-step assembly, including the sealed fabric weight pouch (poly pellets or rice, fully sealed inside fabric — never loose in the crochet), stuffing and finishing, plus a maker's tip for every design
Park a possum along the nursery door, let a cockatoo guard the back door, or make the whole menagerie as gifts for Aussie animal lovers — a door snake is the rare handmade present that is cute, useful and finished in a weekend or two of happy crocheting. Australia gave the world the cassowary's casque, the numbat's stripes and the galah's pink plumage; this Aussie collection lays all twelve along your door. Aussie makers will spot a sugar glider's membrane at twenty paces; everyone else just gets a warmer room.
Skill level: Confident beginner. Worsted/aran-weight yarn, 4.0 mm (US G-6) hook. Each door snake about 89-93 cm (35-36.5 in) long including head and tail; body about 7 cm (2.75 in) across when stuffed.
