Today I will share with you the pattern of a giraffe amigurumi toy named Rafik designed by Marina Chuchkalova. The height of the crochet giraffe toy is approximately 21 cm.

The giraffe’s horns and bow tie look quite cute. We see that the spots on the toy’s body are randomly positioned and these spots have an asymmetrical structure. This design style allows the spots to have a natural appearance.
