Good morning #needleworkmonday !
Last week I was once again impressed by @pempumaking's beautiful alpaca - If you haven't seen it, have a look here :

It's no secret that I like alpacas, llamas, vicuñas and guanacos and often can't really tell the difference between them.
The pattern so beautifully made by @pempumaking shows two legs. Here's a link for the pattern I found in French.
I felt sorry that the resulting creature couldn't stand so I decided to make it with four legs. Yes, as always, I just improvised part of the process.
Below I will just show you the photos of my method :
I repeated the process to make the other two legs and then joined them :
I stuffed them before so I didn't forget afterwards :D
It was a bit hard dealing with the legs. I followed the rest of the pattern for a bit but then added a few more changes :D
To build the nose I applied the same technique I showed last week for the ears of the pig. This added enough stitches without having to sew in another piece.
I did the same with the ears. I left a few 'tufts' of hair on top of the head to hide the finishing and then embroidered simple eyes and a nose.
It's ready to travel now - alpaca things ready to go :DD
