The Crochet Piplup Amigurumi Pattern is a fun way to make a cute toy that looks like Piplup, a popular Pokémon. This project involves using yarn in colors like dark blue, light blue, white, and yellow to create the different parts of Piplup, such as the head, body, and wings.
You'll also use some felt for the eyes to make your toy look just right. The pattern includes steps like making loops with the yarn and then adding or taking away loops to make the pieces bigger or smaller. Once all the parts are made, you put them together to get your very own Piplup toy. This project is a good choice for someone who enjoys crocheting and likes cute Pokémon characters.

Head:
Start with dark blue yarn.
- R1: 6 SC in magic circle.

Begin decreases.
R19: [6 SC, Decrease] x6 (42 SC).
Continue in the same fashion, decreasing in each subsequent round until you reach 6 SC. Then, close up the head using a yarn needle.
White Face Detail:
- With white yarn, crochet two semi-circles and join them to create the face shape.
- Start with a chain and work in rows to create the semi-circular shapes.
- Join the semi-circles with chains and fill in with SC to complete the face piece.
Eyes:
- Cut felt pieces in oval (dark blue), smaller oval (black), and circle (white) shapes.
- Glue the pieces together to form the eyes and attach them to the face.
Beak:
- With yellow yarn, create the beak top and bottom separately by starting with a magic circle and increasing, followed by rounds of SC.
Body:
- With light blue yarn, start with a magic circle and work similar to the head pattern, with increasing and then straight rounds, followed by decreases. Leave a tail for sewing and fill with stuffing.
White Body Circles:
- Crochet two flat circles and sew them onto the body. Outline with black DK yarn using fabric glue for a clean finish.
Wings:
- With light blue yarn, make two wings by starting with a magic circle and increasing for several rounds, then working straight before slip stitching and leaving a tail for sewing.
Feet:
- Crochet a leg stump and a foot separately in light blue and yellow respectively, then sew them together and attach them to the body.
Collar and Cape:
- Crochet the collar pieces and cape with dark blue yarn, increasing from a foundation chain and working in rounds. Create a spiky cape texture by adding small crochet spikes. Sew these pieces to the front and back of Piplup.
Finishing Touches:
- Embroider or glue outlining details with black DK yarn as needed for cleaner definition.
- Finish by securely attaching all pieces together and weaving in all ends.
