Yarn
POWERED BY
Scheepjes Catona 4ply, 100% Cotton. 125m per 50g
MC: 45g approx of Champagne (248) for Body, Head, Arms, Legs, Tail and Ears.
CC1: 15g approx of Bridal White (105) for Head, Face Patch, Belly Patch, Head Tuft, and Beard.
CC2: 10g approx of Root Beer (157) for Arms, Legs and Horns.
CC3: Small amount of Black Coffee (162) for Eyes and Embroidered Nose/Mouth.
A cotton yarn works well for Ami as it gives good stitch definition and creates a firm structure so body parts hold their shape well.
Catona is a relatively thick 4 ply (US: Sport) - you can substitute a DK Cotton (US: DK/Light Worsted) with a similar amount of metres
per 50g.

Hook
3 mm

Tension
24 sts x 27 rows = 10cm measured over dc using 3mm hook.
Tension is not critical for this project but stitches should be tight enough to avoid stuffing showing through.

Other Supplies
Yarn needle, toy stuffing, stitch marker/waste yarn, pins and scissors.

.Pattern Notes
Unless otherwise specified this pattern is worked in the amigurumi style, in a continuous spiral without slip stitching or turning chains.
The Face Patch and Belly Patch are worked in turned rows.
Use a stitch marker or waste yarn to keep track of the first stitch of each round.
If you do not want to make a Magic Ring you can start each piece by making a chain of 2 and then work the first round into the second
chain from the hook.
If you would like to start with a Magic Ring but don’t know how, you can find a Photo Tutorial HERE.
The Goat is made of multiple separate pieces sewn together. Unless otherwise stated, finish each piece by pulling the yarn through the
last loop and leave a long tail for sewing. Any loose tails at the end can be easily woven in.
UK Crochet Terms - Abbreviations

This pattern is written using UK Crochet Terms - they are NOT the same as US ones - please familiarise yourself with the UK terms to
avoid your character’s shape distorting!
The “dc” abbreviation used in this pattern refers to UK double crochet. The equivalent stitch in US terms is single crochet - if you are
used to US patterns you need to work single crochet everywhere this pattern says “dc”. If you work US dc (equivalent to UK Treble) the
finished item will be elongated and the stuffing will show through.
If you are used to working in US Crochet Terms you can find a conversion chart HERE.
If you are unfamiliar with any of the terms used in this pattern, you can find a chart of the UK Crochet terms used HERE.

Making Up
Using the photographs as a guide, pin the pieces together first, checking from all angles to make sure you’re happy with the
positioning, then use the long yarn tails or a length of yarn with a yarn needle to stitch the pieces together.
Start with the Head. The colour change at the end of Rnd 11 indicates the underside of the Head. Sew the Beard to the underside of
the Head, roughly in line with Rnd 5.
With the Beard facing down, sew the Body to the underside of the Head - the front of the neck should sit roughly in line with Rnd 17 of
the Head.
POWERED BY
Sew the Face Patch to the top of the Head, centred in line with the Body. The first Row of the Face Patch lines up with Rnd 11 of the
Head.

the Face Patch.
Sew the Horns either side of the Head Tuft, pointing outwards.
Fold the open end of each Ear in half and secure in this shape with a few stitches and then sew the Ears on to the Head just below the
Horns.
Sew the Belly Patch to the Body, with the first row of it roughly in line with Rnd 6 of the Body, making sure it's centrally aligned with
the Head.
Sew the Arms either side of the Body, attaching them about 4 rounds down from where the Body joins the Head.
Sew the Legs to the base of the Body, setting them forwards slightly so the Goat can sit down on his bottom. The colour change on the
Legs should be facing the back of the Body.
Sew the Tail, curving upwards, to the Body, attaching it in line roughly with Rnd 7 of the Body.

Embroidered Details
Using the photos as a guide, with a yarn needle embroider the following details:
Single stitch highlight on each Eyes, using CC1.

The Nose and Mouth using CC3.
All done!
