Hello amigurumi lovers and beautiful visitors, I wanted to share the free amigurumi patterns for you here. In my article I will share 1 pattern and how to make it for you. At the end of my article, I will share amigurumi patterns that can generate ideas for you.
Supplies:
4/Medium weight yarn in… (The fuzzy yarn is from crochet.com)
Fable Fur (Mishka, 2 skeins)
Light Brown
Black
4mm & 5mm crochet hook
10mm safety eyes, tapestry needle, scissors, bell (optional), and stuffing.
Additional Information:
Difficulty: Easy
We start by making the head of the cow, which works into the body. They are one piece. We then make the nose, mouth, horns, ears, arms, and legs. Next, we make the tail and add an optional bell. Finally, we sew on nostrils!
Please also note that if you’re using the bulky, furry yarn, that the hook sized suggested DO matter. We will go between a 4mm and 5mm hook at times.
Stitch count is easy when using this yarn! Just be sure to count your stitches the entire time you’re crocheting, rather than at the end of the round. This makes it easier to follow along. If you notice you need to add or decrease a stitch, it should be no problem. You don’t have to redo the entire round, you can just add or decrease that stitch in the last stitch of the round.
