I know you have been waiting for the Pocoyo amigurumi toy for a long time. The fact that this toy is designed as a keychain is also a very cute detail. Since the amigurumi toy will be made with light color tones, you need to work carefully. As you can see in the photo, all your stitches will be clearly visible while making the toy. I also recommend checking the suggested materials list carefully.
Pocoyo Keychain Amigurumi Pattern
To make the Pocoyo amigurumi keychain, 6 mm safety eyes will be enough. You may think this size is a little large for this toy, but I think it suits the doll very well. It is also very important that the safety eyes are only black.
