I bought this pattern from Storyland Amis at the beginning of this year when she was donating proceeds to help the animals being affected by the fires in Australia. I decided to start it this week and was surprised at how quickly it worked up! I used Caron Simply Soft yarn in gray and black (purchased at Michael's). I used 15mm eyes, as suggested by the pattern, and purchased them at 6060eyes, my favorite safety eyes Etsy shop. 

He is the sweetest Koala I ever did see! I asked Santa for the Ultimate Christmas Bundle Pack by Storyland Amis so I can work on some holiday decor for next year- crossing my fingers it shows up underneath my Christmas Tree!
