Crochet Pattern: Lil’ Baby Unicorn

Are you a Unicorn lover? Perhaps you’ll enjoy making this little cute and cuddly baby. I really
enjoyed making this little one and I’m happy to share it with you! The unique part of this
unicorn is probably the 2 colored mane and tail. Make this special little friend for yourself or
to bless someone else. I would LOVE to see pictures of your work(s) using my patterns. Feel
