Finn The Frenchie
Crochet Pattern Designed By YarnSociety.com

The pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions and pictures to help you
along the way. Finn The Frenchie is crocheted in continuous spirals without joining the rounds. We
suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Finn The Frenchie
crocheted in worsted weight yarn is approximately 6-inches tall. Be aware that size may vary depending
on the yarn and hook size used. Gauge is not particularly important, just be consistent with the tension
you are using. And most importantly, have fun!

Pic 1) Place the 21mm safety nose through a stitch between Round 16-17 of the nose flap. Make
sure to center the safety nose. The safety nose is quite big, so just work the nose into the stitch.

Pic 2) Then place the safety nose through a stitch in the head between Round 21-22. (Help: Your
white round starts round 19, so count down from there) Make sure to center the flap between the
cheeks. Don’t secure the nose just yet- just in case you need to move it.

Pic 3-5) Begin to attach the flap to the head. (See pictures for attaching) Make sure to stretch your flap
out a bit while attaching it to the head. Secure with pins if needed. If you’re happy with the safety nose
placement, secure it now.

Pic 6) Place the 15mm safety eyes through a stitch between Round 18-19 of the head - the round of
the color change. Place the eyes so they sit next to the flap. Secure the safety eyes when you’re
happy with the placement.

Putting Finn Together - Assembly

PIC #1 We recommend pinning the parts together before sewing the animal together. This will give you a
better idea of where you’d like the parts to be attached before actual assembly.
PIC #2 Attach the ears to the head between Rounds 4-11 of the head, one on each side.
PIC #3 Attach the body to the head at around Round 31.
PIC #4 Attach the arms to the body at the neckline. (In line with the eyes)
PIC #5 Attach the feet to the body between bottom of Round 4 and top of Round 6. One on each side.
PIC #6 Attach the tail to the back of body between Round 4-6.

Weave in all the excess pieces of yarn into the body. Please be aware that amigurumi contains
small pieces and can be dangerous to children. If you’re selling this stuffed ami, please place a
warning and also state that safety eyes are not recommended for anyone under the age of 3.
