Crochet Baby Amigurumi Mice 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.
CRAFT SUPPLIES & TOOLS
What do you need to prepare to crochet this sweet little amigurumi mouse? You need some yarn in Gray color and Pink color (I used the stashed yarn from the crochet mouse), 6 mm black domed eye (or 6 mm safety eyes if you preferred), and of course some polyester fiberfill.
We are using a 2.5 mm crochet hook to crochet, and a tapestry needle to sew up the parts & pieces together. Other tools you will need are scissors, pins, and a marker. With all materials and tools, you will produce a 4 inches tall finished crochet baby mouse.
TYPE OF BASIC CROCHET STITCHES YOU MUST KNOW
In order to successfully crochet this amigurumi mouse baby, first, you must have at least some basics in crochet. For the baby crochet mouse amigurumi, you will need to know how to crochet with the magic ring, chain stitch, single crochet, and slip stitch, along with the increment and decrement stitches.
Though it is a beginner crochet craft, we’d raise the difficulty a little to challenge your skill; that’s changing yarn color at the beginning rounds at the head, arms, and legs. Depending on your skill level and comfort level in crochet amigurumi, you may always use the same single color for these parts.
