The Crochet Blueberry Amigurumi Pattern is a fun and easy guide to help you make a cute, small crochet blueberry toy.
Crochet Blueberry Amigurumi
You start with a simple technique called a magic ring and then use basic crochet stitches to shape the blueberry. As you follow the steps, you will increase and decrease the stitches to make the blueberry round. Near the end, you'll add fun details like eyes and a little frilly top to give it character.
The pattern only needs some blue yarn, a crochet hook, and stuffing to bring the blueberry to life. This project is great for both beginners and experienced crocheters looking for a quick and enjoyable craft.
Materials Needed:
- Size 6 chunky yarn in Classic Blue color
- 5.5 mm crochet hook
- Scissors
- Bobby pin or a stitch marker
- 20 mm safety eyes
- Yarn needle
- Polyester fiberfill for stuffing
Pattern:
Making the Magic Ring:
- Create a magic ring using your preferred method.
Round 1:
- Work 6 single crochet (sc) into the magic ring. Gently pull on the ring to tighten.
Round 2 (Increase Round):
- Make an increase (inc) in each stitch around (2 sc in each stitch around). You will have 12 stitches in total.
For Round 3:
- Sc in the next stitch, inc in the next stitch. Repeat ** around. You will have 18 stitches by the end of this round.
Round 4:
- Sc in the next 2 stitches, inc in the next stitch. Repeat ** around. You should have 24 stitches by the end of this round.
Round 5:
- Sc in the next 3 stitches, inc in the next stitch. Repeat ** around. By the end of this round, you should have 30 stitches.
For Rounds 6-10:
- Sc in each stitch around for 5 rounds. Maintain 30 stitches throughout these rounds.
Round 11 (Decrease Round):
- Sc in the next 3 stitches, then make an invisible decrease. Repeat ** around to reduce to 24 stitches.
Round 12:
- Sc in the next 2 stitches, then make an invisible decrease. Repeat ** around to reduce to 18 stitches.
For Round 13:
- Sc in the next stitch, then make an invisible decrease. Repeat ** around to reduce to 12 stitches.
- Add safety eyes between rounds 8 and 9, spaced about 4 stitches apart.
Round 14 (Frill Making):
- Work 3 double crochet (dc) in each stitch around for a frilly top effect.
Finishing:
- Slip stitch to the first dc, chain one and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail for sewing. Pull the tail through the loop to secure.
- Stuff the blueberry with polyester fiberfill. Adjust the amount of stuffing as you sew it closed to ensure it’s firm but squishy.
- Using a yarn needle, weave the tail through the stitches of round 13 to close the opening. Make sure to distribute the stuffing evenly before completely sealing.
- Fasten off and hide the tail inside the amigurumi.
Additional Notes:
- Feel free to customize it with embroidered cheeks or other decorative elements.
