Questions
Which yarn colors do I need for Kris?
You need 6 colors of worsted weight (4) yarn: about 65 g (115 yd / 105 m) of black for the body, head, ears, arms, legs and tail, about 5 g (5 yd / 5 m) of charcoal for the muzzle, about 5 g (5 yd / 5 m) of pink for the nose, about 10 g (15 yd / 15 m) of red for the hat, about 5 g (5 yd / 5 m) of white for the pompom and about 10 g (15 yd / 10 m) of green for the scarf. You also need about 25 g of fiberfill and 2 safety eyes (12 mm).
How tall is Kris, and how many parts are there?
About 7.75 in (20 cm) tall. You crochet 11 parts (body, head, muzzle, nose, 2 ears, 2 arms, 2 legs, hat, pompom, scarf and tail), 140 rounds in all, then follow 14 assembly steps to put Kris together.
Is Kris a good first amigurumi?
Yes, if you are happy with a slightly longer project. Kris uses only basic stitches (single crochet, increases and decreases in the round), but with 11 parts and 140 rounds it takes longer than our easiest toys. For a very first toy, a shorter one from our easy amigurumi patterns for beginners is quicker.
Which languages are included?
You get four PDFs: English, French, German and Spanish. The English version uses US crochet terms, and the stitch page lists the UK names too.
How do I get the pattern?
Right after checkout you get an email with your download links. You can download your PDFs again from that email any time.
