This pattern is for a Plague Doctor Oddling. Oddlings are amigurumi creatures of my own design, and they come in many varieties, of which the Plague Doctor is just one. Dragons, unicorns, bats, octopuses, Medusa, Cthulu, and voodoo dolls are just a few of my other designs. This is the first pattern I have written down.

Any color or type of yarn can be used. It is only suggested that you use a needle that will create a tight stitch so that your stuffing won’t show through.

The finished piece, if 4 ply or Aran weight yarn is used, will be approximately 6-8 inches tall. This will change depending on yarn weight and hook size used.
