Plush Roly Poly Pill Bug
This is my second Roly Poly Pill Bug crochet pattern, and it has fewer details to sew (the segments are crocheted in one piece). It was designed for blanket yarn Pill Bug, but the pattern works with any yarn weight. With a toy joint skeleton, you can make it roll into a ball for extra cuteness! :)
The PDF is in English, using US crochet terms, consists of 8 pages and has a lot of helpful photos. The crochet level is advanced beginner.
You can sell the toys made by using this pattern, with the credit to Tumannart.
Do not copy, share the pattern, or resell it.
Size of crocheted Roly Poly Pill Bug using specified materials below is approximately 15 inches in length.
You can use any weight yarn (with appropriate hook) to make a larger or smaller Pill Bug.
Materials:
Yarn - I used Alize Velluto (3.53 Oz - 74.3 yds) about 2 skeins of beige, 4 skeins of dark gray
Hook 5.5 mm (I always use smaller hook than yarn manufacturer suggests to avoid gaps in work)
Pins (I used plastic big needles)
Fiberfill
Stitch markers
Safety eyes (I used 24 mm diameter but you can use bigger or smaller eyes)
Tapestry needle
Optional: plush toy skeleton joint about 10 - 12 inches length, the piece of any fabric 25 X 2.5 inches (note: for the small pill bug made of sport wight yarn - 9 mm diameter of skeleton joints. For blanket yarn Pill Bug it’s better to take minimum 16mm or 20mm diameter)
