my dear friends. Today we are adding a new one to the crochet giraffe amigurumi patterns. Today’s giraffe amigurumi pattern is designed using velvet rope and has a very nice appearance. The only thing I didn’t like about this amigurumi was the color choice. Especially the choice of the giraffe’s mouth in such a dark color can make the amigurumi look a little bad. Maybe a slightly lighter color would have been preferred. If you are ready now, let’s make crochet giraffe amigurumi together.
