Amigurumi Alpaca Crochet Pattern
Hello amigurumi lovers and beautiful visitors, I wanted to share the free amigurumi patterns for you here. In my article I will share 1 pattern and how to make it for you. At the end of my article, I will share amigurumi patterns that can generate ideas for you.
Supplies
Yarn Colors Needed: Pink, White and Black Embroidery Thread
Crochet Hook in 3mm
Safety Eyes Size Small
Stitches used: Sc, Inc, Dec, Ch, Magic Ring, and Finish Off
We start with making 4 legs, then setting them aside we will create the bottom half of the body. From there we will sc the legs onto the body. Then, working up we will create a neck and body barrier by chaining across the body.
Legs
Round 1: In pink, 6 sc in magic ring (6)
Round 2: *Inc* all around (12)
Round 3-6: *Sc* around (12)
Round 7: Switch to white, *Sc in next 3 st, inc in next st* 3 times (15)
Round 8-11: *Sc* around (15)
Finish off and set aside each leg. Make sure to knot the thread inside of the leg from the magic ring and changing colors. This will help to make sure the leg wont unravel.
Body
Row 1: In white, Ch 15. 2 Sc in 2nd ch from hook. Add st marker in 1st sc just made, Sc in next 12 st, Inc in next st, turn to other side of ch, Sc in next 12 st, Inc in last st (30)
Round 2: Inc in next 2 st, Sc in next 12 st, Inc in next 3 st, Sc in next 13 st (35)
Round 3: Sc in next 3 st. Take any leg and line up with next body st. *Make sure Right side of the body is facing down. If you don’t do this then the alpaca’s pattern will look odd because the wrong side will be facing out.* Sc in next 4 st through BOTH body and leg, making sure leg line up looks like the picture.
Continuing on body, sc in next 6 st. Line up 2nd leg with body and Sc in next 5 st through BOTH body and leg. Now working on body, Sc in next 2 st. Now take 3rd leg and line up to body, Sc in next 5 st through BOTH body and leg. On body, Sc 6. Now line up last leg to body and Sc 4 through BOTH body and leg. Now we meet st marker.
Round 4: Sc 4 on body. Now we meet the first leg. Sc in next 13 across leg, now we meet body. Sc in next 7 st. Now we meet the 2nd leg. Sc in next 12 st on leg. Now we meet the body. Sc in next 3 st.

Round 6: Sc in next st, add st marker and leave st marker in sc just made. We will use this st marker later. Sc in next 27 st, ch 12, count next 22 st and sc in 22nd st. Now this forms the hole for the head which we will be creating now. We will close the body after finishing the head.
Now turn work to start sc across the ch just formed. Skip sc just made, Sc in next 12 st across ch. Now we meet the body. Sc in next 3 st. Add new st marker to 3rd sc made. Sc in next 18 st, now we meet the Ch, Sc 12 across ch, now we meet the body. Skip next st and sc in last st. (32)
