Introduction I would like to thank you for purchasing this tutorial. I hope that you will be fully satisfied with it and, above all, that Skully you will make will be exactly as you imagined. Remember that if you have any questions you can send me an email: krawka.blog@gmail.com. Jake and the Never land Pirates is one of my favorite shows that my son is watching, it's cute and funny and the most important of all it's a bit educational. I love Disney's productions, and like so many times before, I don't really care for humans I always love the animal characters best. So I knew right away I will make Skully for my son, I didn't gave it to him right away, he had to find it using the pirate map my husband made. Let me tell you - he was delighted :) Crochet Skully, when finished, is 18 cm (7 inches). It's perfect to put on your shoulder and shout "Yo ho ho" :)
