Crocheting is easy and I taught myself 50 years ago from a Woman's day or magazine of some type. Love that pattern but not sure what I would do with something that big, was going to order and saw size and just too big. May get it and make it smaller. Wish I was close enough to teach you how to crochet, but many great places on line with videos to show you. If you can quilt and sew, you can crochet. You go girl, it is really adorable.
