MUK WITH OPEN MOUTH CAVITY

I was recently contacted by a customer on Etsy that wandering if I could turn Muk into a dish to hold dice or coins in his mouth cavity.  Of course, I told him that I could.  This is the pattern that I came up with for the Muk dish.  I used a bag of wooden discs to show Muk with something in his mouth.  The pattern has the color lists for both Muk and Shiny Muk.
