Hello my dears, today I want to share a chubby and simple free amigurumi pattern. I have shared a few of the seagull amigurumi patterns before. However, as you know, I have to say that it is among the very rare amigurumi patterns. The chubby seagull amigurumi pattern that I will share today is very easy and has a very different design. First of all, I have to say that the amigurumi toy has a very large body.
Amigurumi Chubby Oddy Seagull Pattern
The most impressive part of the amigurumi toy is its eyes and beak. Although it has a simple structure, it looks extremely impressive. Still, the idea of such a chubby seagull seems strange to me for some reason. The part you need to be careful about when making the toy is the seagull’s eyes.
