Tips for Crocheting the Bathtub Scene
The little bathtub is what makes this design so irresistible. Work it firmly and stuff it just enough to hold its rounded shape without bulging. If bubbles are part of the design, small white French knots or tiny crocheted spheres give a lovely 3D effect. Take your time with the facial embroidery: a simple V-shaped beak and softly blushing cheeks bring the whole scene to life.
