I would like to share the plush tiger amigurumi pattern named Mondy designed by Valeria Primachenko with you, my valued followers. Although the design date of the pattern is old, you can easily make the tiger amigurumi toy, which attracts attention with its big eyes and impressive texture, thanks to this pattern. The toy is mainly made of orange, white and black yarn.
Mondy the Big Plush Tiger Crochet Pattern
The height of the crocheted tiger toy is approximately 29-30 cm. To make such a large tiger, the designer used Himalaya Dolphin Baby plush yarn and 4 mm crochet. The legs and body are crocheted in one piece, while the arms are made in stages as a separate piece and sewn to the body. The crocheted toy will be a great symbol and New Year’s gift for the year of the tiger.
