Questions
Which yarn colors do I need for Pistachio?
You need 4 colors of worsted weight (4) yarn: about 80 g (140 yd / 125 m) of green for the body, head, ears, arms, feet and tail, about 5 g (10 yd / 5 m) of butter for the belly, about 5 g (10 yd / 10 m) of olive for the wings and about 5 g (10 yd / 10 m) of gold for the spikes and horns. You also need about 25 g of fiberfill and 2 safety eyes (10 mm).
How tall is Pistachio, and how many parts are there?
About 6.25 in (16 cm) tall. You crochet 10 parts (body, head, 2 ears, 2 arms, 2 feet, belly, 2 wings, 4 spikes, 2 horns and tail), 95 rounds in all, then follow 12 assembly steps to put Pistachio together.
Is Pistachio a good first amigurumi?
Yes, if you are happy with a slightly longer project. Pistachio uses only basic stitches (single crochet, increases and decreases in the round), but with 10 parts and 95 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.
