Pattern Description:

I present to you King Aroo, the Most Regal Marsupial. King Aroo is knit in separate pieces, and seamed together separately. Gauge is unimportant, as long as it is tight enough to hide stuffing, which is why there is no designated finished size. I hope you enjoy this free pattern :) There is a checkbox next to every line of directions, so you'll never forget where you may have left off! Note: Please do not sell this pattern or any objects you make from it for profit, unless you have my explicit permission. Thank you for understanding!
