1. easy (¬)
2. intermediate (¬¬)

Each pattern is marked with a skill level to indicate

how easy it is to make. If this is your first time making
amigurumi, it’s best to start with an easy pattern and
work your way up to intermediate and advanced
ones.

PATTERN STRUCTURE
All patterns in this book are worked in continuous
spirals, not in joined rounds. Crocheting in spirals can
be confusing since there’s no clear indication of when
one round ends and the next begins. To keep track of
rounds, you can mark the end of a round with a stitch
marker or safety pin. After crocheting the next round,
it should finish just above your last marked stitch.
 BASIC POINTS

If this is the first time you make amigurumi, you may find it useful to have a tutorial at hand. With the
stitches explained in the following pages you can make all the amigurumi in this book. We suggest that you
practice the basic stitches before you start making one of the designs. This will help to read the patterns and
abbreviations more comfortably, without having to navigate back to these pages.

CHAIN ( abbreviation: ch)

If you are working in rows, the first row will be a series

of chain stitches. Use the hook to stretch the yarn
through the loop (1) and pull the loop tight (2).

hook from back to front. Pull the hook, which carries
the yarn, through the loop already on its hook (3) . You
have now completed a chain stitch. Repeat these
steps as indicated in the pattern to create a
foundation chain (4) .

Single crochet ( abbreviation: sc)

Single crochet is the stitch that will be used most

frequently in this book. Insert the hook into the next
stitch (1) and wrap the yarn over the hook. Pull the
yarn through the stitch (2) . You will see that there
are now two loops on the hook. Wrap the yarn over
the hook again and draw through the two loops at
the same time (3) . You have now completed a
single crochet (4) . Insert the hook into the next
stitch to continue (5) .
 SLIP Stitch (abbreviation: SLST)

A slip stitch is used to move through one or more

stitches at a time or to finish a piece. Insert the hook
into the next stitch (1) . Wrap the yarn over the hook
and draw through the stitch and loop it on its hook at
a time (2).

DOUBLE CROCHET ( abbreviation: dc)

When starting a new row of double crochet, work

three chain stitches to gain height. Bring your yarn
over the hook from back to front before placing the
hook in stitch (1) . Wrap the yarn over the hook and
draw the yarn through the stitch. You now have three

stretch the yarn through the stitch (2) . Wrap the
yarn over the hook again and pull it through the first
two loops on the hook (3) . Repeat this last step twice
(4, 5). You have now completed a triple crochet
stitch. To continue, bring your yarn over the double
hook and insert it in the next
stitch.

INCREMENT ( abbreviation: inc)

To increase make two single crochet stitches in the

next stitch.

INVISIBLE DECREASE (abbreviation: dec)

The invisible decrease method will make your

decrease stitch look much like the other stitches in
the row, resulting in a smooth and even crochet
fabric. Insert the hook into the
front loop of your first stitch. Then immediately insert
your hook into the front loop of the second stitch (1) .
You now have three loops on the hook. Wrap the
yarn over the hook and draw through the first two
loops on the hook (2) . Wrap the yarn again and draw
through the remaining two loops on your hook (3) .
You have now completed an invisible decrease.
 INVISIBLY DECREASE 3 stitches at a time (
abbreviation: sc3tog)
at a time ( abbreviation: sc3tog )

Insert the hook under the front loop only of the next
three stitches (1) . This gives you four loops on the
hook (2). Wrap the yarn over the hook and draw
through the first three loops on the hook. Wrap the
yarn over the hook again and pull through the
remaining two loops on the hook (3) . You have now
completed a sc3tog.

FRONT curlers only (abbreviation: FLO)

AND BACK purls only (abbreviation: BLO)

When making a crochet stitch, you end up with two loops

at the top of the stitch, a front loop towards you (1) and a
back loop away from you (2) . When asked to crochet or
FLO BLO you take the same stitch but leave one loop
untouched.

CROCHET AROUND A FOUNDATION CHAIN

Some pieces start with an oval instead of a circle. You

make an oval by knitting around a foundation chain
instead of crocheting in a magic ring. Knit a
foundation chain with as many chains as mentioned
in the pattern. Skip the first chain on the hook (1) and
work a sc stitch in the next chain stitch (2, 3). Work
your crochet stitches in each chain across as
mentioned in the pattern. The last stitch before
returning is usually an increase stitch (4). Now, turn
your work inside out to work on the bottom of the
chain stitches. You will notice that only one loop is
available, simply insert the hook into this loop (5).
Work the stitches in each chain widthwise. When you
finish, the last stitch should be next to the first stitch
you made (6). Now you can continue working in
 MAGIC RING

A magic ring is the ideal way to start knitting in the

round. You start by knitting over an adjustable loop
and finally tighten the loop tight when you have
finished the required number of stitches. The
advantage of this method is that there is no gap left in
the middle of your starting round.

Start with the crossed yarn to form a circle (1) .

Establish a loop with your hook, but not too tight (2) .
Hold the circle with your index finger and thumb and
wrap the working yarn over your middle finger (3) .
over your middle finger (3) . Make a chain stitch by
wrapping the yarn over the hook and pulling it
through the loop on your hook

(4, 5) . Now insert the hook into the loop and

underneath the tail. Wrap the yarn over the hook and
draw up a loop (6) . Wrap the yarn over the hook
again

(7)
and draw through the two loops on the hook. You
have now completed your first single crochet stitch
(8) . Continue to crochet (repeating step 6, 7, 8) until
you have the required number of stitches as
mentioned in the pattern. Now grab the yarn tail and
pull to pull out the center of the ring tightly closed (9,
10) . Now you can start the second round of crochet in
the first single crochet stitch of the magic ring. You
can use a stitch marker to remind you of the starting
point. If this technique is not preferred, you can start
each piece using the following technique: CH 2, x sc in
the second chain of the hook - where x is the number
of stitches sc will make in your magic ring.
 BASIC POINTS

If this is the first time you make amigurumi, you may

find it useful to have a tutorial at hand. With the
stitches explained in the following pages you can
make all the amigurumi in this book. We suggest that
you practice the basic stitches before you start
making one of the designs. This will help to read the
patterns and abbreviations more comfortably,
without having to navigate back to these pages.

BOBBLE STITCH

The Bobble stitch creates a soft, rounded shape. Think

of it as a set of double crochet stitches worked into
the same stitch. Yarn over from back to front before
inserting the hook into the stitch (1). Yarn over and
pull the yarn through the stitch. You now have three
loops on the hook. Yarn over again and pull through
the first two loops on the hook. A half-finished double
crochet is complete, and two loops remain on the
hook (2). In the same stitch, repeat the previous steps
two more times. You should now have four loops on
the hook. Yarn over and pull through all the loops on
the hook (3). A 3-double crochet Bobble stitch is
complete. Create a Bobble stitch with the largest
number of double crochet stitches as indicated in the
pattern.
 PICOT STITCH

Make three chain stitches. Insert the hook into the

first chain stitch you made (1) , wrap the yarn around
your hook and draw through the two loops on the
hook. A purl stitch is complete (2).

CRAB Stitch or low stitch

REVERSE

At the end of the single crochet row, do not turn your

work - you will be working from left to right. Insert the
hook into the first stitch to the right (1). Wrap the yarn
around the hook and pull up one loop
(2) . The new stitch is to the left of the loop originally
on the hook. Pull up one loop and pull it through the
two loops on the hook (3) .

FRENCH KNOT

The French knot is a stitch stitch. Insert a threaded

sewing needle from the back to the front through the
stitch where you want the knot to show. Hold the tip
of the needle flat against your crochetwork and wrap
the thread around the needle twice (1). Carefully pull
the needle through these loops so that you end up
with a double knot. Insert the needle into the crochet
stitch next to the knot (2) - not in the same stitch, as
this will make the knot disappear - and secure it at
the back.
 CAMBIO DE COLOR INVISIBLE

Cuando se quiere cambiar de un color a otro, se

trabaja para dentro de dos puntos ante un cambio de
color. Realiza el siguiente punto, como de costumbre,
pero no tire el último bucle a través (1). En su lugar,
envuelva el nuevo color de la lana alrededor de su
gancho y tire de ella a través de los bucles restantes
(2). Para hacer un cambio de color ordenado, puede
hacer que el primer punto en el nuevo color de una
hoja de puntada en lugar de un único punto de
ganchillo. No tire de la puntada del resbalón
demasiado apretado o será difícil de crochet en la
siguiente ronda. Ate las colas de hilo sueltos en un
nudo y dejarlos en el interior.

FINISHING OFF

When you have finished crocheting, cut the yarn a

few inches/cm from your last stitch. Pull the yarn
through the last loop until it’s pulled all the way
through (1). You now have a finished knot. Thread the
long tail through a tapestry needle and insert the
needle through the back loop of the next stitch (2).
This way, the finishing knot will remain invisible on
your completed piece. You can use this piece of yarn
to continue sewing the pieces together.
