It’s an invasion of cuteness! These little guys are ready to zoom off in their flying saucer for their next alien adventure!
There is minimal sewing involved in this pattern. The only part you’ll be sewing is the antennas. The aliens’ legs are crocheted in, as are the parts of the flying saucer.


This fun play set includes instructions for 2 different sized aliens and their flying saucer.

This pattern is written in English and uses American crochet terminology. It includes lots of photos along with step-by-step instructions.

Size
Gauge is not important to this pattern. The size of your finished products will vary depending on the size yarn and hooks you use. The flying saucer is about 7.5” across and 2.25” tall. The aliens are 2 different sizes: 3.5” and 4” tall (when their feet are straightened out); and including the antennas.
• Using thinner yarn and smaller hooks will yield smaller items. Using thicker yarn and larger hooks will result in larger items. An individual crocheter’s yarn tension can also be a factor in sizing as well.

Pattern Notes
The pattern is written for advanced beginner crocheters and beyond (mainly because of the type of terminology used). The intermediate is familiar with making amigurumi and understands basic amigurumi crochet terminology and stitches as well as how to sew pieces together, finish off, hide ends, etc. If you are not familiar with all the terms used in this pattern, there are a multitude of tutorials on You Tube that can help. Also feel free to contact me with any questions. I’ll be glad to help in any way I can.
