Crochet Your Own Romantic Lion ❤️
Create your very own elegant little lion inspired by a certain unforgettable bookish love story where a lion falls for a sheep.
This 15 cm amigurumi is packed with tiny details and hidden references, from his signature removable coat to the little red apple in his paws. And, of course, his most important feature: sparkling skin! ✨
For the body, I used yarn with metallic lurex fibers to create a subtle shimmering effect inspired by the famous description of skin that sparkles in the sunlight.

✨ Special Details
• Approximately 15 cm / 6 inches tall

• Movable head attached with a Teddy joint

• Wire armature inside the front paws, allowing them to be gently posed

• Body crocheted with lurex yarn for a subtle sparkling skin effect

• A removable knitted jacket/coat inspired by his signature outfit

• Tiny sewn trousers, made using leftover fabric scraps

• A miniature red crocheted apple that fits perfectly in his paws

• Detailed step-by-step instructions with photographs
The little apple is, naturally, an essential accessory.

Finished Size
Approximately 15 cm / 6 inches, depending on your yarn, hook size, and tension.
