Yarn
Scheepjes Catona 4ply, 100% Cotton. 125m per 50g
A cotton yarn works well for Ami as it gives good stitch de nition and creates a rm structure so
body parts hold their shape well. Catona is a relatively thick 4 ply (US: Sport) - you can substitute a
DK Cotton (US: DK/Light Worsted) with a similar amount of meters per 50g.
These little characters are great for using up odds and ends of yarn. As a rough guide, making the
combined body and head in a single colour would use approximately 15g of Catona 4 ply.
Tension
24 sts x 27 rows = 10cm measured over dc using 3mm hook.
Tension is not critical for this project but stitches should be tight enough to avoid stu ng showing
through.
Other Supplies
Yarn needle, toy stu ng, stitch marker/waste yarn, scissors.
Size
Combined Body and Head is about 9cm (3.5 in) tall - not including hats etc.
Pattern Notes
Unless otherwise speci ed this pattern is worked in the amigurumi style, in a continuous spiral
without slip stitching or turning chains.
Use a stitch marker or waste yarn to keep track of the rst stitch of each round.
If you do not want to make a Magic Ring you can start each piece by making a chain of 2 and then
work the rst round into the second chain from the hook.
If you would like to start with a Magic Ring but don’t know how, you can nd a Photo Tutorial at:
https://www.mycrochetchums.com/magic-ring-photo-tutorial.html
The characters are made of multiple separate pieces sewn together. Unless otherwise stated, nish
each piece by pulling the yarn through the last loop and leave a long tail for sewing. Any loose tails
at the end can be easily woven in.
This pattern is written using UK Crochet Terms - they are NOT the same as US ones - please
familiarise yourself with the UK terms to avoid your character’s shape distorting!
The “dc” abbreviation used in this pattern refers to UK double crochet. The equivalent stitch
in US terms is single crochet - if you are used to US patterns you need to work single crochet
everywhere this pattern says “dc”. If you work US dc (equivalent to UK Treble) the nished
item will be elongated and the stu ng will show through.
This pattern also uses UK htr - half treble - the equivalent US stitch is hdc - half double
crochet and UK tr - treble - the equivalent US stitch is dc - double.

wrangle with managing a website and social media.
