Embroider on black eyes, take 3 pieces of red yarn double the length that you want the tongue to be. Fold in half, using crochet hook pull red yarn through at middle of snout, then pull ends through, making tassel of 6 strings. Braid strands evenly, two pieces to a section. Tie in knot at end and snip to make even. Ssssssss...
There were errors in the orginal pattern, but I believe they are now fixed.
Thanks! Moe

I've browsed a couple of your patterns. You're a complete hoot! Thanks for putting yourself out there and a grin on my face! I look forward to seeing what else you create!
Hi! I hopped on over here from the Lonesome Skein knitalong, I really like your scarf. What kind of yarn did you use?
Super cute! Not just for kids. :-) I may make this for myself. Nice directions too. Thank you.
I absolutely love the scarf. In fact, the little guy that I made, he loved it too and so did his grandma. I have to make one for her, granted it has to be pink because that is her favourite color, of course.
I have read on other sites that I have several errors in this pattern. It was the first pattern I wrote and I would appreciate if people could tell me how I messed it up so I can fix it. I have looked at it, but probably would have to make it again to see the errors.
Thanks, Moe
Hello, it is me again. I still love your snake scarf pattern, I am opening up a website to sell my crochet items including teddy bears, scarves, as well as handmade cards. I would love to use your pattern and of course, I would give you credit and even put a link for your website.
But I need your answer as SOON as possible since I would like to include it, but can't if you do not tell me.
Lesley,
Use it, no problem.
Moe
