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.
YARN: Light (3) – White and Gray; Cotton Thread in Black
MATERIALS: 3.25 mm Crochet Hook; Poly Filling

ABBREVIATIONS: magic ring (mr), stitch (st), slip stitch (sl st), single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc), bobble stitch (dc6tog), fasten off (F/O)
SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate
SEAMLESSLY COLOR CHANGE: Work in the color A until two loops of the last stitch remain on the hook. Use the color B to complete the stitch.
BOBBLE STITCH: Work each st to the last loop but leave the last loop on the hook while you are working the rest of the stitches in the bobble. Then, yarn over and draw a loop through all the loops on the hook to complete the stitch.
