I shared a snake amigurumi pattern the other day and it was wearing a very nice crown. Today, the snake amigurumi toy I will share has a simpler and cuter design. In fact, this toy can even be a girl’s toy. Although the toy has a very long body, it is usually crocheted in the same way, so it will be easy to make, although it will take some time.

The toy has very impressive eyes and a red tongue. The design of the snake’s forked tongue is given in the description in detail. The snake’s tail is quite thin and its head is made large, just like a snake’s.

Before securing the eyes with a plug, check if they are located evenly in relation to the snout.
Stuff the toy with fiberfill as you go. I stuffed the head quite tightly, and stuffed the rest of the toy so that the snake’s body remained soft and elastic.

Decoration
Take black yarn YarnArt Jeans and a suitable needle. Embroider the upper eyelids, nostrils and mouth. I embroidered the eyebrows with chenille yarn above the eyes, 4-5 stitches will be enough.
Tongue
Hook size 2 mm and red yarn YarnArt Jeans. The tongue is crocheted as a separate piece and then attached to the mouth using the ends of the red thread. You can also crochet the tongue on the toy. Insert the hook in the middle of the mouth, grab the red yarn, draw the loop and make ch1. Then follow my description.
Ch12, from the second chain on the hook: 3 sl st.
Ch4, from the second chain on the hook: 3 sl st.
Work 8 sl st on the main chain.
Cut the yarn, leaving the end for sewing pieces.
Attach the tongue to the mouth.
Your snake is ready!
