Questions
Which yarn colors do I need for Patches?
You need 4 colors of worsted weight (4) yarn: about 60 g (105 yd / 100 m) of white for the body, head, muzzle, ears, arms and legs, about 5 g (5 yd / 5 m) of pink for the nose, about 10 g (15 yd / 15 m) of orange for the spots and tail and about 5 g (5 yd / 5 m) of black for the face. You also need about 25 g of fiberfill and 2 safety eyes (10 mm).
How tall is Patches, and how many parts are there?
About 6.25 in (16 cm) tall. You crochet 10 parts (body, head, muzzle, nose, 2 ears, 2 arms, 2 legs, 3 spots, face and tail), 89 rounds in all, then follow 14 assembly steps to put Patches together.
Is Patches a good first amigurumi?
Yes, if you are happy with a slightly longer project. Patches uses only basic stitches (single crochet, increases and decreases in the round), but with 10 parts and 89 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.
