Crochet Amigurumi are so easy to make and have delightful personalities. I enjoy creating these little guys so much.
A square crocheted about eight or nine inches is quite simple. You can use a single crochet or a double crochet to work the square. When complete, I crocheted around the perimeter with a contrasting color to add some detail.
The head was crocheted in the round starting with a magic circle. A simple stitched face was add. I do not use plastic eyes for safety reasons..
Ears were added. Long floppy ears for a rabbit or circle ears for a bear. Next two little arms were added. The blanket was folded down at one corner to make a collar. The arms were stitched and secured under the collar and then the head was sewn in place.
These little blanket friends have been made and given as a Christening gift for my grand nieces and nephews. A small handmade keepsake is always a thoughtful gift.
