Amigurumi Fox patch free crochet pattern
If you have seen my previous fox pattern then this Amigurumi fox patch free crochet pattern, then this pattern is very similar to it with a difference that it comes with a black patch around it’s right eye 🙂 It is again a very beginner friendly, even though it uses crochet technique similar to tapestry crochet. In this pattern we are going  Anybody who can crochet in the round can make this project. It can be made in under an hour. And can be made into a keychain or a bag charm. If you embroider the eyes, it even make a great hanging toy for the stroller or a crib mobile.

So let’s take a look at the Amigurumi fox patch free crochet pattern.

Supplies:

  • Small amount of orange and black yarn. I have used Red Heart super saver in carrot and Red heart comfort in black.
  • Small amount of white/off white yarn for the ears.
  • Small amount of black yarn for embroidering the eyes/Plastic safety eyes
  • 3.5mm crochet hook
  • Large eye tapestry needle and scissors
  • Stuffing

Abbreviations:

  • Ch – chain
  • MC – Magic Circle
  • Sl st – slip stitch
  • sc – single crochet
  • inc – 2 single crochet in the specified stitch (this is an increase)
  • [Number] – Stitch count at the end of the round

Pattern Notes:

  • This project is made with worsted weight yarn, however there is no gauge required, so your can use any yarn with a suitable hook.
  • A well stuff body and head prevent the dreadful wobbly head.
  • WARNING: Embroider the eyes if using it as a toy for babies. French knots work great. Plastic safely eyes can be a choking hazard.

Tips before you start:

  • Amigurumi always looks better when the stitches are tighter, also prevents the stuffing from poking out. Use 1 size smaller hook than your yarn calls for.
  • The look of the Amigurumi finished object depends a lot on how you stuff it. Don’t be impatient and stuff too much in one go. Do it in bits.
  • Always pin the body parts together before you start sewing. Be it the limbs or the eyes, mouth, ears, antlers, horns, wings etc. Doesn’t matter even if they are really small parts, pinning them helps. They always turn out better when you do this. I say this from personal experience. 🙂
