Introducing Chunky Uncle Sam – a cute amigurumi character complete with hat, bow tie and jacket.

The finished toy makes a perfect gift for Independence Day. I have provided detailed instructions and photos, making it easy to follow for intermediate or adventurous advanced beginner crocheters. You can use most yarn types with this pattern - lightweight cotton creates a smaller decoration, whilst chunky plush yarn will give you a larger, cuddly doll.

Written in English using US crochet terms, with step-by-step instructions and lots of photos included. Download includes a printer friendly version, as well as a colourful interactive PDF pattern.

• No-sew body base starts at the bottom of the feet and works up to the top of the head as a single piece, crocheting in the arms
• Sewing required to attach ears, bowtie, hair and hat
