Feather the Flamingo lives on a tropical island with her best friends, Tommy Turtle and Veronica Sloth. She loves spending hours every day playing with them and splashing around at the beach, even if she can run faster than both of them! Halloween is Feather’s favourite time of year, and she always wins the island costume contest!

This crochet pattern PDF has been tested and includes 18 pages of pictures and detailed instructions to make your very own Feather the Flamingo Amigurumi Doll.

Note: The witch hat pictured in some of these photos is available as a free pattern. Sew one to your flamingo’s head and she’ll be all ready for Halloween!

Supplies Needed

  • Worsted weight yarn (Red Heart Super Saver or similar): Pink, light pink, black, orange
  • Size F / 3.75 crochet hook
  • Two 10mm googly eyes or 10mm black safety eyes (Googly eyes are cute, but since they’re just attached by glue they aren’t very durable. If you’re making a toy for a child then safety eyes are a great alternative. For a very young child, the safest option is to embroider them with yarn.
  • Optional: Wire & pliers – I used 12 gauge wire, it should be thick enough to be sturdy but still easily bendable – do not include wire if you’re making a toy for a young child! Also, if you can find wire with a white or pink coating then I’d recommend it, I used black and it shows through.
  • Fiberfill stuffing
  • Yarn needle
  • Scissors & pins
  • Stitch marker
  • Craft glue (if using googly eyes)
