Hello! It’s about time I finally release a snake pattern! I’m so happy with how it came out, this is very much a cartoony snake rather than a realistic snake. I had a lot of trouble figuring out how to make the tail, I hope you like how I did it! The tongue is so cute and basically ties the whole snake together 🙂
I hope you get creative with this pattern! At first I made the green snake, then realized I could make so many other snakes just by changing colors. I wanted to make a brown snake but ran out of stuffing. You can also continue to make the tail suuuuper long so it ties around the snake a few times – it’s up to you! Anyways, let’s get to the pattern.

What a darling little snake! A quick and easy make! Thank you for such a great pattern!
Thanks for the cute snake pattern! I’m in the process of making one, maybe two or three. 😀
While working on it, I discovered an error: in round 12 it should say: *inc, sc5*.
I really enjoy your patterns, I have already made two of your adorable pumpkins, and one of my next projects will be the little otter..
