About this pattern
Trixie is a baby triceratops in teal, with a darker teal frill, two brow horns, a nose horn and a pale yellow belly. Nine separate parts and 95 rounds make her the most detailed dinosaur here, so she suits crocheters who enjoy building a toy piece by piece. A good present for a child who knows every dinosaur by name.
It makes a sweet baby shower gift, a birthday surprise or a little shelf friend, and you are welcome to sell the toys you make from it.

Questions
Which yarn colors do I need for Trixie?
You need 4 colors of worsted weight (4) yarn: about 75 g (135 yd / 125 m) of teal for the body, head, arms, feet and tail, about 10 g (20 yd / 15 m) of teal for the frill, about 5 g (5 yd / 5 m) of cream for the horns and nose horn and about 5 g (10 yd / 5 m) of butter for the belly. You also need about 25 g of fiberfill and 2 safety eyes (10 mm).
How tall is Trixie, and how many parts are there?
About 6.5 in (16 cm) tall. You crochet 9 parts (body, head, 2 arms, 2 feet, frill, 2 horns, nose horn, belly and tail), 95 rounds in all, then follow 11 assembly steps to put Trixie together.
Is Trixie a good first amigurumi?
Yes, if you are happy with a slightly longer project. Trixie uses only basic stitches (single crochet, increases and decreases in the round), but with 9 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.
