A crochet mini apple amigurumi pattern is a fun way to make a small, soft apple using yarn and a crochet hook. You start by making a ball shape in red or any color you like for the apple.
Crochet Mini Apple Amigurumi Pattern
Then, you add a little brown stem and a green leaf on top to make it look like a real apple. The crochet steps involve making loops and stitches to slowly build up the apple, putting soft stuffing inside to make it squishy, and then sewing it all together.
This mini apple can be used as a cute decoration, a toy, or even attached to a keychain. It's a great project for people who enjoy crafting and making cute, tiny things.
Materials Needed:
- Red yarn (or any color you prefer for your apple)
- Green yarn for the leaf
- Brown yarn for the stem
- Crochet hook (size not specified, adjust according to yarn)
- Tapestry needle
- Scissors
- Stuffing
- Optional: keychain attachment, jump ring
Apple Body:
Start with red yarn. Create a magic loop.
- Round 1: Place 6 single crochet (sc) stitches inside the magic loop. Pull tail to close loop.
- Round 2: Increase in each stitch around (2 sc in each stitch) – you'll have 12 stitches.
- Round 3: 1 sc in next stitch, increase in the next stitch; repeat from * to * around – you'll have 18 stitches.
- Round 4 to 7: 1 sc in each stitch around for four rounds.
- Start decreasing to form the apple: 1 sc in the next stitch, then decrease (crochet next two stitches together); repeat from * to * around.
- Next Round: Decrease in every stitch around.
- Fill: Before fully closing, add stuffing to the apple.
- Finish off, leave a long tail for sewing later. Do not close up completely yet; the stem and leaf need to be attached first.
Stem:
With brown yarn, make a slip knot with a long tail.
- Chain 4.
- Slip stitch in the second chain from the hook and the next two chains (3 slip stitches total).
- Cut yarn, leaving an equal length tail. Use both tails to attach the stem to the apple through the magic loop at the top.
Leaf:
With green yarn, start similarly to the stem with a slip knot with a long tail.
- Chain 4.
- In the second chain from the hook: slip stitch, then single crochet in the next chain.
- In the last chain, work 5 single crochets around the chain.
- On the other side of the chain, single crochet in the next stitch and slip stitch in the last.
- Add an extra slip stitch down the center for detail, if desired.
- Attach to the apple near the stem with the yarn tails, securing with knots inside the apple.
Finishing:
Close up the apple: Thread the tail of the apple through the front loops of the remaining stitches and pull to close.
- Weave in the end for a neat finish.
- Optional: Attach a keychain ring near the stem.
- Adjustments as needed to shape your apple.
Enjoy your adorable crocheted mini apple! You can create them in various colors and use them as charming keychains or cute decorative items.
