Free Amigurumi Raccoon 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.

Metarials

–  cotton yarn; small amounts of black, grey and white (/offwhite) I used Catania (50g/125m)
– hook size 2.5
– needle
– safety eyes: I used 7.5mm (with colors as all black would be hard to see)
– polyester filling

MR=magic ring, sc=single crochet, hdc=half double crochet, dc=double crochet
inc=invisible increase, dec=invisible decrease

Ears (make 2): With black: R1: MR, 3sc, 3dc, 3tr, 3d, into ring, sl st to first. Break off, weave in ends. With grey yarn: R1: same as black. Place the black on top of the grey, continue with grey yarn and crochet together like this; R2: 5sc, 2hdc in next, (dc, tr, dc) in next, 2hdc, 5sc, sl st to first. (for a simpler version just skip the black)
