Hello friends, first of all, today I will share two new amigurumi patterns with you. First, I will introduce you to a cute giraffe rattle pattern. We can see that the toy has a detailed design and thanks to this, the toy looks very eye-catching. It will attract your baby’s attention thanks to its striped colorful structure and thanks to this, your baby will not be bored. The giraffe, which has a big nose, has tiny eyes and pink horns. I do not recommend using wire on the giraffe’s horns because this is a baby toy and it will not be suitable for your baby.
We can see that the giraffe’s ears and horns look quite symmetrical and its spots are placed asymmetrically.
