I used Sharon's basic pattern for the Little Bigfoot Collection as a starting point, and then changed it up to get the look I wanted. She is 3" tall. Check out Amigurumi Animals to see other animals I have made in a similar fashion. Or continue reading below for the pattern on how I made her. This project is worked in continuous rounds, unless otherwise stated. I used a 1.6mm hook and crochet cotton (I am guessing it is somewhere between sizes 3-10). This produced a 3" tall animal. If you used a 3.75mm hook and worsted-weight yarn, that would produce a 5"-6" animal approximately. So long as you use a hook size with a yarn that produces hole-less and tight stitches, you are good to go!
Now that you have all your pieces, it is time to put them together. Sew the body to the head. Then sew the arms to the body. Sew the tail to the back of the body. Next sew the pouch onto the front of the body. Then sew the hind legs to the space that remains between the pouch and the tail on either side, adding a little bit of stuffing before closing up completely. Next, if you haven't already, sew the nose onto the face and use the rest of the yarn to embroider a mouth. Embroider your eyes, or use whatever method you like for the eyes. If you are using safety eyes, remember to put those into rnd 6-8 before you finish the head. Finally, use the tail of the outer ear to sew the inner ear onto the outer ear. Then, proceed to sew the ears onto the head. If you find any mistakes in the pattern, or need help, please feel free to write them in the comments section below.
