Despite being a 3 or 4 year old design, the giraffe Poppy amigurumi toy is still popular. Today I would like to introduce you to a wonderful giraffe amigurumi pattern designed by a designer named N_iniko, who has been well known in the past for her unusual designs.
Poppy the Giraffe Crochet Pattern
The crocheted giraffe, which also stands out with its knitted scarf, looks quite impressive with its thin and elegant legs. The randomly positioned spots of the giraffe with its tiny horns also have a standard design. As you can see, the sizes of these spots are the same.
