Meet Brownie Bear and his friends. These cute crochet amigurumi mini bears, frogs, and pandas are made from one simple pattern.
All you need to do is change the color for each animal, and voila—you’ve got cute, small-size teddies. You will love them all. They are all easy to make and so quick to whip up.
Finish Size
- Approximately 6.5 inches tall with 2.5 mm crochet hook.
- The size of the brownie and his friend may vary depending on the size of the yarn and crochet hook.
Materials for crocheting amigurumi mini bear.
To make you will need
1. Acrylic yarn in this pattern, I normally used 8 ply
2. Plastic eyes with safety backing 9.5mm (you can find it at any craft shop)
3. Fiberfill for stuffing
4. Sewing yarn needle
5. Ribbon or decoration button, leftover fabric.
7. Crochet hook size 2.5 mm and craft glue
Note.
The size of the crochet hook really does not matter. The doll designed will work just fine with different sizes of crochet hooks; only the end size of the creation will differ slightly.
This pattern works continuously in rounds. You may use a contrasting color short pieces of yarn to mark the beginning of each round.
When round one ends, do not join at the end of each round; you will begin the second round in the next stitch.
At the end of each round, I have given the number of stitches you should have .If you are off by 1or 2 stitches, do not worry about it.
