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

Supplies:

  • Small amount of white/off white shade of dk weight yarn.
  • Small amount of black yarn for embroidering the eyes/Plastic safety eyes
  • 2.75mm crochet hook
  • Large eye tapestry needle and scissors
  • Stuffing
 

Abbreviations:

  • Ch – chain
  • MC – Magic Circle
  • Sl st – slip stitch
  • sc – single crochet
  • [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. 🙂
