Decorate your home or office with this unique wall decoration!

This pattern includes all the information you need to create one of these for yourself in an easy to follow format!

Sizing and Construction

This pattern is made by crocheting around a 6” steel ring to make the face of the amicatcher.

You will then work in the round to make each of the pieces for the face (snout, eyes, and ears.)

Using your yarn needle, you will sew each of the pieces onto the face.

You will need to use the glue gun to attach the Cabochon eyes. Another option would be to crochet your own eyes or use 30 mm safety eyes.

If you use safety eyes, I still recommend using the hot glue gun to secure the back piece of the safety eye. This just helps keep it from getting pulled out.
