Rainbow sherbet themed mushroom gal!

My kiddo has been asking for a mushroom guy since I made one for myself last year. Took me a while to finish up some other projects, but here she is!

(Also, my kiddo is older so the safety eyes are fine.)

Advice for making mushroom guy using size #5 bernat velvet yarn?

I didn’t plan to make a mushroom guy, I just happened to run across this sub and fell in love and realized I had 4 balls of Bernat velvet yarn (size #5 315yrds each, 6.5mm hook recommended) hanging around. I have 2 colors, light and dark blue, so he’s going to be monochromatic because I’m not buying anymore yarn this year, but is this enough yarn to make him?

How much yarn did you use if you used bernat velvet? And what size needle did you use? I’d love to see pics too if anyone has them using this yarn

for scale and perspective: the lower torso here is touching my face

a friend commissioned me to make this (a while ago... thank you for your patience pal lmao) and as i was working on it last night i decided it wasn't big enough, undid it all, and started over with a larger hook. this is what i'm talking about!!! i'm all caught up to where i was before, so i don't feel bad about starting over lmao

will report back with the oversized results!!!! i think i have to buy another ball of yarn or two though which is unfortunate because i was using yarn from hobbii and wanted to stop supporting them after the genAI debacle :')

My mushroom man

I just learned how to crochet in June. Mushroom man was my biggest undertaking so far and I was so happy with how he turned out! I just love him💕

Stitched aren't adding up, am I doing something wrong?

I hope it's okay to post (picture wise), but I'm struggling to understand and I've seen other people have a few questions about this pattern, but I can't seem to get this bit right. The blue stitch marker is the chain/where the legs are connected and the pink up top is where my 52 stitches are. I've frogged this part a couple times, I even had to redo the second leg and redo it like the first leg, but I still can't reach where I started. Idk if anyone who used this pattern also struggled with this part, but I'm asking for advice and help to make sure that it's not me or if other people struggled with this pattern too.
