Todays daily new amigurumi free crochet pattern is Amigurumi Love thy Bear.
I want to give you some informations about this pattern ;
Difficulty: Intermediate, US terminology
Materials:
– 2.75mm hook/C-2 (US)
– 8ply yarns/DK or Light Worsted > 50g yarn in MAIN COLOUR, less than 50g in LIGHT COLOUR
– Scissors
– Tapestry needle
– Polyester toy stuffing
– Stitch marker
– 12mm plastic safety eyes (optional)
– BLACK 4ply yarn or embroidery thread (optional)
Abbreviations:
– ch = chain
– MR = magic ring
– sc = single crochet
– inc = single crochet increase (2 sc in one stitch)
– dec = decrease (sc 2 together)
– sl st = slip stitch
– blo = working in back loops only
– (..) = repeat the space in brackets the given number of times
– [..] = total number of stitches
Notes:
– Amigurumi is usually stitched in the round and a yarn with no stretch is best, I prefer cotton.
– When changing colour, yarn over the new colour and pull through on the stitch prior.
– For this pattern, the following yarns were used:
MAIN COLOUR = Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK “Col. 454 Blush Pink”
LIGHT COLOUR = Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK “Col. 453 Ballet Pink”
– Generally, the hook you use for amigurumi will be a smaller than for other crochet as you want the stitches tight.
– Your tension, yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of the finished item. My Love thy Bear is approximately 22cm tall (9 inches).
– I have embroidered the eyes in the photos but instructions for safety eyes are also included. Please ensure that there are no loose fittings.
