Lion
There are so many amazingly generous designers out there. I already discussed using Lucy Ravenscar's free monkey pattern. This is her free lion pattern that I added to my jungle. You can find the free pattern here. I just recently finished her frog and I will be adding him to the blog soon, too.
As I mentioned with the monkey in order to get the pattern to work right don't join, work in spirals. I was trying to play with joining to make the colors changes easier and it complicated the structure of the lion. I have another lion and lioness pattern that came in the Crochet a Zoo: Fun Toys for Baby and You that I may experiment with if I have time.
The jungle is coming along nicely. When this project is complete, I am going to have to split my time between Halloween, Christmas presents, and Christmas charity toys. That stuff creeps up so quickly.

I was looking at the directions to the site you listed and noticed there's a specific size needle suggested. Is it the same size for the entire project? I never paid attention to different needle sizes, so I'm not quite sure what I'd need to practice again.
