Todays daily new amigurumi free crochet pattern is Amigurumi Crochet Puppy.
I want to give you some informations about this pattern ;

Materials You Will Need –

– Size 4 worsted weight yarn
150g yarn for the body ( I used Yarn Bee Denim in Color in Ivory)
Small amount of accent color for the nose, ears and paws (I used Yarn Bee Denim in Color in Taupe)
– 3.5 mm crochet hook (These are the hooks I use and love!)
– 12mm safety eyes
– 15mm safety nose
– Scissors
– Tapestry needle (Bent tips work wonders for amigurumi!)
– Stuffing
– Stitch markers
– Sewing Pins (these are super helpful when it comes time for sewing)

Optional Materials – 
If you would like your puppy to be weighted (this helps in balancing/stability in a sitting position) you will also want the following materials:

– Poly-pellets – approx. 1/2 – 1 cup
– Knee-high nylon (I found a package at Wal-Mart for 50 cents; if you are choosing a light colored yarn for your puppy you may want to also use a light colored nylon for your weight)
– Funnel (a rolled up piece of paper will also do the trick, this helps in filling the nylon with the small poly-pellets)

Abbreviations (US terminology)

SC- Single crochet
SC INC- Single crochet increase
INV DEC- Invisible decrease
Rep – Repeat
St(s) – Stitch(es)

Magic Circle

A magic circle (also called an adjustable loop) is the most common way to start amigurumi.
1. Leaving about a 4 inch tail wrap the yarn into a circle as in the photos below.
2. Hold the loop by placing your fingers over the part where the working yarn crosses over the tail.
3. Insert your hook into the circle, yarn over, pull through and chain 1.
4. You’re magic circle is complete and ready to begin as pattern instructs (ex: if round says 6 SC you will complete 6 SC around the loop).
5. Pull your tail tight to close.

Invisible Decrease
This is the preferred way to decrease in amigurumi, it keeps the decrease tight and avoids the ‘bump’ of a regular SC decrease.
An invisible decrease happens over two stitches, insert your hook into the front loop of the first stitch and then into the front loop of the next stitch (you will have 3 loops on your hook), yarn over, pull through two loops (you will have 2 loops left on your hook), yarn over again and pull through all loops on the hook.

You’re invisible decrease is done!

Notes –

· Slowly stuff as you go, you want it to be firm but not stretched. You will be working in a continuous round; I recommend using a stitch marker at the beginning or end of each round.

· For this pattern the body and head will be made as one piece.
