Zebracorn pattern a crochet pattern by Enchanthread EASY Unicorns are pretty magical, but ZEBRACORNS are the most magical unicorns of all! My hope is that you use this pattern to make a unique magical creature of your own. Zebra, horse, unicorn, zebracorn.. the sky is the limit! What will you create? I thought adding a varied stripe placement would best represent the very unique look of zebra stripes so the exact stripe placement is written for you but feel free to get creative with your stripes or use no stripes at all!
