Yarn colors
I use Brazilian Brands' yarns ‐ our
default size measures 100g/200m (217
yds).
Since different countries measure in
different ways. You may have to check
your yarn size.

‐ Gray yarn
‐ Black yarn

Extra materials:
‐ Acrylic fiber (to stuff)
‐ A pair of blue safety eyes (5mm)
‐ Fabric glue
‐ White felt

Tools:
‐ Crochet hook (3.0mm)
‐ Scissors
‐ Tapestry needle

To make this pattern you need to

know:
‐ How to make a magic circle (also
known as magic ring)
‐ Chain stitch
‐ Slip stitch
‐ Single crochet stitch (to increase and
decrease)
‐ How to change to a different yarn

Check image #1 to see what you got so far.

DETAILS:
Now that you have all the pieces, let’s put them all
together! Remember that to attach all the parts to the
body, we are going to use the tapestry needle. All the
tails must be hidden inside the body. My tip for placing
the pieces always in a precise way: use pins to attach
the pieces to the doll's body, so you will know exactly
where to use the needle when sewing (remove the
pins after that).
- Start sewing the legs. Be careful when sewing. Don’t
pull the thread too much to avoid it from looking like a
separated body part.
- Sew both arms to the body and then the fingers to
the hands. Check image #2.
- Now it’s time to sew the antenna and the ears.
- Cut a piece of the black yarn to sew his mouth.
Check image #3.
- Use the fabric glue to attach the felt to the doll.

I hope you enjoyed doing this crochet project!

Please, do not redistribute this PDF file. My blog has several free amigurumi patterns.

Notice: Don't leave small amigurumi pieces near unattended children due to the risk of swallowing it. Also,
keep in mind that is always better to use anti-allergic yarn if the amigurumi is going to be constantly
manipulated (used as a toy).
