Planning

1. **Design Strategy**: Withered Foxy is a character from Five Nights at Freddy's - a damaged animatronic fox pirate. For a beginner-friendly pattern, I'll simplify this into basic shapes: a sphere head with snout, cylindrical body, simple limbs, and the iconic features (eye patch, hook hand, torn ear). Colors needed: reddish-brown/rust (main), tan/cream (snout/chest), black (details), and small amounts of gold/yellow (eye). The "withered" aspect can be suggested through color choices and simple embroidered details rather than complex construction. 2. **Construction Plan**: - Head: Modified sphere with attached elongated snout (cone shape) - Body: Cylinder/oval shape - Arms: Simple tubes (one ending in hook detail) - Legs: Simple tubes with basic feet - Ears: Triangles (one torn/smaller) - Tail: Small cone - Features: Safety eye (singular - eye patch on other), embroidered details - Assembly: Sew all pieces to body 3. **Quality Assurance**: - Keep piece count manageable for beginners - Use only basic stitches (sc, inc, dec) - Clear assembly instructions with placement guidance - Ensure proportions work for a recognizable character - The "withered" look achieved through color variation and simple details, not complex techniques 4. **Final Calculations**: - Worsted weight with E-4/3.5mm hook - Finished size approximately 7-8 inches tall - Head: 24 st max circumference - Body: 30 st max circumference - All pieces worked in continuous rounds unless noted

Verification

[PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS] 1. **Completeness**: Pattern includes all required sections - materials, abbreviations, all body parts, assembly, finishing details 2. **Consistency**: Stitch counts verified at each round - increases/decreases mathematically correct (6 stitches added/removed per increase/decrease round) 3. **Constraints**: Beginner-friendly achieved through basic shapes only, simple stitches, clear instructions, manageable number of pieces 4. **Safety**: All math double-checked - increase rounds follow standard amigurumi formula (+6 per round), decrease rounds mirror correctly
