Garden Pals Amigurumi Crochet Pattern

Amigurumi is a Japanese word for little stuffed animals. They are usually made from crocheted yarn and have an oversized head. The Japanese word "Ami" means crocheted, and "nuigurumi" means stuffed doll. This is a very easy crochet pattern and great for beginners. The size of the Doll depends on the size of the crochet hook, thickness of yarn and how you stuff them; a bigger hook and thicker yarn makes a bigger doll. A doll stuffed tightly is bigger than one stuffed loosely. Size: The dolls are 3 inches/ 7.5 cm high (excluding ears). This crochet pattern is written with U.S.A. crochet terms: ch = chain, sc = single crochet (UK : dc = double crochet), st = stitch, sl = slip, rnd = round, tog = together. Disclaimer: The finished dolls are not suitable for children under 3 years because of loose parts (the eyes).
