I used a Clover brand pompom maker and the Caron Dark Country Blue

 

without pompom

 Hope everyone enjoy this crochet pattern I also want to add that if you want to use the Red Heart Super Saver or any brand but same type of this yarn and with the hook H-5mm you will come up with the size that would fit a 4-6yr old. and if you use a hook size 5.5mm with Red Heart Super Saver yarn, you will come up with the size that would fit a 7-9yr old.

This pattern is made by me I DID NOT copy this from any site, you are free to use this pattern and sell your projects just be fair and DO NOT sell the pattern to anyone!
