18. Wallace the Whimsical Walrus
Wallace is a chunky, lovable sea mammal who is sure to bring a smile to your face with his oversized muzzle and prominent white tusks. Crocheted in a deep slate grey or warm mocha brown, Wallace features a rotund, heavy-bottomed body that makes him exceptionally huggable. His whiskers are created using short strands of cream-colored yarn that are frayed and brushed out for a realistic, bristly texture. Wallace is a wonderful project for practicing shaping through increases and decreases, resulting in a beautifully sculpted face that is full of character and old-world charm.
