I continue to bring you wonderful amigurumi patterns for christmas. Today I am with you with a wonderful Christmas pudding amigurumi toy. This toy, which you will make using brown, white, green and red yarn, belongs to icrochetthings, also known as a great pokemon designer. 5 different colors of yarn are used in the making of the toy.
Christmas Pudding Crochet Toy
You will need a 3mm crochet hook when making the toy. You can make the eyes, cheeks and mouth of the amigurumi toy using felt if you wish, but the design you make using yarn can also look very realistic.
