This is the second addition to the Wizard Fantasy Bundle! I’ve been wanting to make a
mandrake amigurumi for well over a year. I hope this pattern looks good, my favorite part
has to be the roots coming off of his arms and legs.
Mandrakes, what are they? They actually don’t originate from Harry
Potter!
They have a centuries long history. So far back that the mandrake plant is actually
mentioned in well known works such as the Book of Genesis. The plant (mandragora
officinarum) is referenced through many ancient books to cure ailments such as
depression, infertility, joint pain, diseases, and was even used as an anesthetic. However,
take even slightly too much of the plant and you’ll be met with hallucinations, or worse,
death.
Dancing with death is common when dealing

with the mandrake.
According to folklore, uprooting a mandrake
was a dangerous job. Simply pulling a

mandrake from the ground would result in an
ear-piercing scream from the humanoid-
looking plant and would kill the novice
gardener.

It’s no surprise that this made the

plant even more sought after.
Those desperate enough to retrieve the plant

for it’s health benefits would still have to risk
a life. It’s said that the gardener would have
to tie a rope around a dog’s neck like a leash,
then tie the other end of the rope to a
mandrake’s root. The gardener would then
throw the dog a treat, and as the dog would
run towards the treat, the gardener would plug
his ears. The force of the dog’s running would uproot the mandrake, and the scream would
kill the dog rather than the gardener who plugged his ears.
With a lot of folklore, people pass it off as “Well that was just an old
story they would tell!”
I have to admit that I can believe this one, though. The “how to safely uproot a mandrake”
guides span across many cultures and are presented in an educational sense rather than an
entertainment sense.
A plant that holds such strong powers to cure the biggest ailments probably doesn’t want to
be touched for a reason. Maybe that’s why the plant will give you hallucinations and death
if you ingest too much – because you weren’t supposed to. Magicians and those who
practiced witchcraft would seek out this plant. It seems to bear some dark energy, so I
suggest staying away from this plant and never ingesting it.
With that dark history, let’s crochet a cute non-lethal

mandrake!

• Getting started…
The mandrake’s tip, head, and body are all made in one continuous piece. We will start by
making the very tip of the root! After this, we will make the arms and legs. Then we will
make the leaves and roots!

Fabrics for $4. Pair that with their 50% off coupon and you can get the vase for $2!
• Recommended Yarns:

Round 12: *Inc, Sc 2* all around (12)
Round 17: *Inc, Sc* all around (18)
Now we will add 2 different colored stitch markers into Round 26. Add a
different colored stitch marker into the 37th and 42nd stitch. Make sure these markers
match each other, but not your round stitch marker. We don’t want to confuse the eye stitch
markers with the Round stitch markers!

Round 31: *Dec, Sc 5* all around (36)
Round 34: In the FLO, *Sc* all around (24)
Add the eyes in the marked areas now. Stuff the head firmly here.

Finish off, leaving a tail for sewing. Sew the remaining stitches closed. Tie a firm knot
with the remaining tail end of yarn and bring into the body to hide. Cut excess yarn.
Arms: (Make 2)
IN DARK BROWN

Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Pin the arms on as shown (specifically the top of
the arm on Round 36 and the bottom of the arm on Round 40). Sew on, making sure to
stuff the arm before fully sewing closed. Once sewed on, tie the tail end of yarn into a firm
knot. Bring the knot into the crochet body to hide. Cut any excess yarn.
Legs: (Make 2)
IN DARK BROWN

Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Pin the leg on as shown (specifically the top of
the leg on Round 47 and the bottom of the leg on Round 51). Sew on, making sure to stuff
the leg before fully sewing closed. Once sewed on, tie the tail end of yarn into a firm knot.
Bring the knot into the crochet body to hide. Cut any excess yarn.
Tiny Leaves: (Make 2)
IN LIGHT GREEN
Round 1: In a magic ring: Sc 2 times, Dc 1 time, Ch 2 times, SlSt in the 2nd Ch from the

both ends of yarn together twice (Pic 4)

Take one strand and pull the ends apart to make even more tiny strands of yarn (Pic 5).
Repeat this with the other strands (Pic 6-7).

(Pic 8-9). Do this for the other limbs!
