Increasingly, amigurumi is the crochet genre that I’m finding the most joy in.
Here are a couple of mini-projects I’ve undertaken of late:
I came across these awesome whales on Pinterest and when I clicked through to the original post, I was ecstatic to discover a free pattern!
I did make a couple of changes to the pattern, however. As I prefer to use as few joins as possible, instead of creating and attaching the fins and tail, I integrated them into the body of the whale.
Fins: Ch4 and join into the same stitch before continuing around.
Tail: Ch5, HDCin 2nd stitch from the hook, HDC, SC, slip stitch into the next stitch. Repeat, but SC into the same stitch, then fasten off and change colour.
This baby penguin was found on Craftsy, and is of course by A Morning Jup of Jo Creations . I keep meaning to make the larger penguins too, but as I say almost every day, time is not my friend!
Have you made mini amigurumis? Do you have any patterns you’d like to share?
