Crochet Plush Walrus Keychain PDF Free Pattern 1

I would like to introduce the amigurumi toy pattern by saying that this is the first time I have seen a walrus amigurumi toy pattern. Brown nöil yarn is used in the making of the crochet toy and you will need to use a beige yarn for the whiskers while making the toy. The designer has two different suggestions for the walrus’s whiskers. If you look at the photos, these photos will help you decide your preference.

It is recommended that the eyes of the toy made using a 5.5mm crochet hook be made using 12mm safety eyes. Now if you are ready, let’s start.
