Easy. Basic crocheting skills required.
You can use any yarn to make this amigurumi. For example, if you use a smaller
hook and a suitable yarn, the toy will be smaller while maintaining the same
proportions.
Finished Measurements:
Approximately 12 in/ 28 cm high using original plush yarn and hook G/6 (4
mm).

14 sc sts × 14 rows = 4 in x 4 in / 10 cm x 10 cm using hook US size G/6 (4 mm)

Crochet Abbreviations (US terminology):

dc - double crochet
dec – decrease
inc – increase
rep – repeat
rnd(s) - round(s)
sc – single crochet
sl st – slip stitch
st(s) - stitch(s)
() – rep the content of the parenthesis as many times as the number after
parenthesis says.
The number after = is the total number of stitches in the rnd.
Beginning:
All pieces are worked in a spiral continuously. This means that you do not end
the rnd with a slip stitch and do not start a rnd with a chain.
I start working every piece from a magic ring but you can ch2 and work the
necessary number of sc in the second st from the hook.
You should crochet tight enough to prevent stuffing from sticking out.
Head:
With mustard yarn and hook G/6 (4 mm) make a magic ring.
Round 1: 6 sc in magic ring = 6 sts
Round 2 (INC): 2 sc in each st around = 12 sts
Round 3 (INC):(sc in next st, 2 sc in next st)*6 times = 18 sts
Round 4 (INC): (sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st)*6 times = 24 sts
!!! Switch to white yarn, don’t cut the mustard yarn
How to change yarn color:

Follow the pattern in color 1 until the last stitch over, pull through the loop with
the new color 2. Leave the color 1 behind until it is time to work on it again.
Continue to work in Color 2 until it is time to change the color back to 1, on the
3
last stitch in the color 2, just pull through the color 1 on the last yarn over and
drop the color 2.
Round 8 (INC): With white plush yarn (sc in next 6 sts, 2 sc in next st)*6 times
= 48 sts (finish off white yarn)
Rounds 9-15: with mustard plush yarn sc in each st around = 48 sts
Important!!!! If you use safety eyes (16 mm) insert them now between rounds
12 and 13 with 8 sts in between.
Round 16 (DEC): (sc in next 6 sts, sc dec)*6 times = 42 sts

Stuff the head.
Round 21 (DEC): (sc in next st, sc dec)*6 times = 12 sts
Round 22 (DEC): sc dec*6 times =6 sts
Fasten off.

!!! Switch to mustard yarn
Rounds 6-10: sc in each st around = 18 sts
Fasten off, leave the tail about 10 cm and cut the yarn. One leg is done.
Rep rnds 1-10 for the second leg. Do not cut yarn when the second leg is
finished.
Continue with mustard yarn from second leg:

Round 11: 18 sc around the 1st leg’ sts, then make 18 sc around the 2nd leg’s
sts (this is how legs are attached to each other) = 36 sts
!!!Then with the tail of the first leg yarn you should do 1 sl st inside the legs to
prevent hole between the legs.

Now you need to stuff the legs. Otherwise it will be difficult later.

Fold arm in half and sc two sides together with sc 2.

Rep rnds 1-11 for the second arm.
Cheeks (make 2)
With pink cotton yarn and hook 3 mm make a magic ring.
