This guy is a powerful evil wizard who possesses some of the most powerful black magic of all time. This pattern works up an intimidating, yet still a pretty adorable character.

This is my own version of a cute, yet evil wizard doll. See the materials list for the materials that I suggest for this pattern. I am not claiming that he has any association with Voldemort, the Harry Potter franchise or Warner Brothers.

The pattern is written for advanced beginner crocheters and beyond. The advanced beginner 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. In addition, this pattern calls for stitches such as the sl st, hdc and dc. 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 email me with any questions. I’ll be glad to help in any way I can.
