A set of 4 cute, festive friends. Simply add a hanging string to make them ornaments!

These patterns are easy and use US terminology. A knowledge of how to crochet is essential as they do not teach you how to crochet, they simply provide instructions for you to make the items.

Your tension, yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of your finished item. My toys are between 8-11cm tall. Using a thicker yarn and larger hook will result in a larger toy.

You will receive one PDF file which requires software like Adobe Reader to open (this is free to download).

You will need:

  • 2.5mm hook/C-2 (US)
  • 8ply yarns/DK or Light Worsted > less than 25g of each colour
  • 2 pairs of 8mm safety eyes, 1 pair of 9mm
  • Scissors
  • Tapestry needle
  • Polyester toy stuffing
  • Stitch marker (optional)
  • BLACK embroidery thread

Notes:

  • Amigurumi is usually worked in the round and a yarn with no stretch is best.
  • Generally, the hook you use for amigurumi will be a smaller than for other crochet as you want the stitches tight.
  • I’ve used Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK in the following colours: o CHOCOLATE = 411 Coffee Bean o BROWN = 410 Soft Fudge o BEIGE = 408 Vanilla Cream o WHITE = 403 Champagne White o YELLOW = 423 Buttercup Yellow o ORANGE = 466 Glorious Gold o PINK = 454 Blush Pink o RED = 414 Rose Red o GREEN = 430 Grass Green
