I found this one that has more realistic looking heads. I’m so tempted to get it but it seems so intimidating to attempt to crochet.
Thank you very much 😊 The unicorn is from this book - Animal Friends of Pica Pau by Yan Schenkel
This made me laugh because for a couple of months this book has sat in my Amazon basket, but I'm told i can't hang any up! Animal Heads: Trophy Heads to Crochet https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/178494064X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_8VeMybW848QCH
There's this book on Amazon. I have it and its pretty neat! https://www.amazon.com/Animal-Heads-Trophy-Crochet/dp/178494064X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1497453130&sr=8-1&keywords=animal+heads+crochet (Sorry, don't know how to link well)
There is a lion head in it that you can possibly modify.

Pattern was from the Pokemon Crochet book https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pok%C3%A9mon-Crochet-favourite-crochet-patterns/dp/1446308332 however I modified the tail.
Yarn used is Cygnet Scrumpilicious which be warned sheds a lot although is beautifully soft. Hopefully she does not fall apart. 6mm hook used.
Eyes are also crocheted: free handed oval with chain embroidered brown iris. Size 2(lace) weight yarn with 2mm hook.
1st ever crochet project - I like a challenge! Decided to make this for Halloween back in Sept but it took me so long I've just finished it this evening. Ah well, still brings me great joy!

I used a variety of patterns from the linked book to make the shape (an aubergine, pot bottom and part of a cactus!) and had to figure out how to do it as I went.
It's from the book "Animal friends of Pica Pau". It's pretty cheap considering how many patterns it contains, can't recommend it enough, honestly, she uses some interesting techniques and the finished pieces always look so good. I'm not usually one to buy pattern books because I rarely like all the patterns but I not only loved every pattern in this book but the second book also and I've my eye on the third book which was recently released too, they're brilliant!

Eyes and cheeks just simple circles and ovals stitch to the head as opposed to felt detailed in pattern.
Oh they are from books. I really recommend them. Here’s the first book,

Pattern from this book. I used I Love This Yarn in red, yellow, and Desert Glaze.
I’m not sure if the pattern is available online. I used a pattern from a book a friend got me!

The pattern is called Saguaro Cactus from the book Whimsical Stitches by Lauren Espy. I used a 4.00mm Susan Bates Soft Ergonomic hook and Craft Smart yarn.
I recently got this book and all the patterns are super cute! I’ve made a little pumpkin from it that gets compliments every time! So that’s my recommendation, get the book, make some cute things that will win you brownie points when you post a picture of them 😁
I have crochet books on my hobbies WL. Thanks for hosting!

I've used the organic cotton yarn from Schachenmayr and a 2,75mm hook.
It’s from a book called Unicorns & Dragons 2, but I’ve made a couple of small amendments (should be different appliqués on the back, left off the nostrils etc).Unicorns & Dragons 2

I used a 3.25mm hook because that was the smallest I had on hand, and the yarn was just whatever I already had at home to help get rid of old yarn
