Those who haven’t yet played Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail are probably wondering what a capybara has to do with the game. Well, late in Dawntrail, you take a tour by riding FLYING capybaras! You can also get a capybara mount so you can ride one anytime you’d like.
I made this softie for the Rodents challenge in my crafting tournament. Hey, this works!
The yarn I used is Yarn Bee Yarntopia. I needed fingering (or sport, if I couldn’t find fingering) and needed it FAST and wanted acrylic, so my choices were limited. UGH THIS YARN. It’s really slippery, so the skeins kept falling apart and I have to spend precious time untangling. It’s also super soft which probably makes it not the best choice for a toy. Splitty, too. I did not enjoy using it, and was glad when the toy was finally finished.
