Stegosaurus Stacking Toy Amigurumi Pattern

This stegosaurus is a stacking toy: a round base, three soft rings in light blue with green stripes and a head that fits on top, with yellow plates on the back and little legs with white nails. A child can take the rings apart and stack them back up in order. It is crocheted in cotton yarn with a small hook and it is a bigger project that looks like a collector's toy.
