LITTLE RUBBER DUCKY

My wife is crazy about rubber duckies.  She has more than I am going to count.  I decided to design a crocheted version of a rubber ducky.  When I made the Rubber Ducky, she wanted me to make a little one.  Here is the pattern for little rubber ducky.

MATERIALS:
Worsted weight yarn:  bright yellow, carrot and black.
E crochet hook
Polyester fiberfill
Tapestry needle

BODY:
Rd 1: With bright yellow, 8 sc in magic ring.  (8)
Rd 2: 2 sc in each sc around.  (16)
Rd 3: (sc in next 4 sc, 2 sc in next sc) 3 times, sc in next sc.  (19)
Rds 4-7: sc in each sc around.  (19)
Rd 8: (sc in next 4 sc, sc2tog) 3 times, sc in next sc.  (16)
Rd 9: sc in each sc around.  (16)
Rd 10: sc2tog around.  (8)
Stuff BODY at this point.
Rd 11: (sc in next 2 sc, sc2tog) around.  (6)
Flatten tail.  End with 1 row of sc through both thicknesses.  Finish off.  Weave in ends.

HEAD:

Finish off leaving a long tail to close opening and sew HEAD to BODY.

BEAK:
Rd 1: With carrot, 8 sc in magic ring.  (8)
Rd 2: 2 sc in each sc around.  (16)
Finish off leaving a long tail to sew BEAK to HEAD.  Fold BEAK in half and sew to HEAD between the 4th and 5th rounds.
