Recommendations
Appa is approximately 15 cm high, but your result may vary
according to the materials you use and the tension with which
you crochet. A variation of 1 or 2 cm is possible even when
crocheting with the same hook size and yarn thickness.
This pattern is crocheted in a spiral. It is recommended to
crochet the single crochet in X-shape, but if you prefer to
crochet in V-shape, the difference won't be much. On the web
you will find the explanation of the changes between one and
the other way of making the single crochet.
The indications in parentheses must be repeated as many
times as mentioned outside, and the final parenthesis indicates
the number of stitches remaining at the end of each round.
If you see the + sign between two stitches, it means that they
must be done together in the same space.
Let’s start!

Finish off and cut leaving a tail to sew the legs to the body.
Sew the legs in such a way that they touch the base (approximately 3
rounds below the neck) and serve as a support for Appa to sit on, that
is, securing them at the top and also on the side.
Horns

Finish and cut leaving a tail to sew the horns to the head. Curve the
ends. Sew on both sides of the head, approximately four rounds over
the edge of the hair.
The arrow is made in brown felt. The corresponding size is the size of
your amigurumi from the edge of the hair to the tail (22 cm in my case).
Glue with silicone.
The lines are also made in brown felt. In my case, the three long lines on
the back are about 8 cm long and 0.5 cm wide, and the tail line is 5 cm
long and 0.5 cm wide. Glue with silicone.
To give a more tender touch to our Appa, cut two small ovals in pink felt
and glue them on his cheeks.
And that's it!
