Crochet Chess Knight Amigurumi Pattern – No sewing!

This chess knight amigurumi works well as a decoration or part of a big chess set (other figures are/will be added to my Ravelry store!).

Written pattern with a lot of pictures so it’s easy to follow.

If you are anything like me, you will appreciate the fact that this is a chess amigurumi pattern without sewing! The crochet figure is worked from the bottom up in one piece – absolutely no sewing included!

Size:

The finished size depends on the yarn you are using, with the suggested 8/4 cotton yarn the size is:
Height: 21cm / 8.3 inches
Width: 8.5cm / 3.35 inches

Skill level:

Easy/intermediate
You need to know basic stitches, increasing, decreasing, and working on back loops and front loops.

Yarn usage:

Depends on the yarn. Suggested: 105 m / 115 yards of 8/4 cotton.

Other materials:

• Hook: 2.5mm hook (or one that matches your yarn)
• Toy stuffing
• A piece of plastic/cardboard/etc. (size of the figure’s bottom) and scissors to cut it
• Tapestry needle (just for weaving the ends – no sewing!)
• Stitch marker or a small piece of other colour yarn

Notes:

The pattern uses 8/4 cotton yarn (fingering/superfine) and a 2.5mm hook.

Any yarn is fine but remember that yarn impacts the size of the finished figure. Also, the amount needed varies based on the yarn. Choose a hook size that fits the yarn you are using.

The pattern is written in standard US terms.
