Dear friends, today we will examine the crochet rattle horse amigurumi pattern together. First of all, I have to say this. Crochet rattle amigurumis may seem easy, but it can be a little difficult to combine with the wooden part. You have to get this part right. I tried to explain how to crochet the pattern step by step. I hope you will like it. Horse patterns haven’t been around much lately. It is among the very rare amigurumi patterns. The most challenging part of this cute horse amigurumi is the collar. Other than that, the other parts are pretty easy. We will crochet together step by step. The pattern is free. Don’t forget to tag the designer!

Ring clamp N1
– Cast on 10 ch with a coffee-colored thread (The number of loops depends on the thickness of the ring and the yarn, therefore, having knitted 3-4 rows, you need to try on the clamp on the ring. It should sit very tightly!)
– Turn the work and starting from the 2nd loop, knit 9 sc
– 1LL and knit back 9sc
So we continue to knit to the length you need. I have 32 rows. Fasten and cut the thread, leaving the end for sewing.
Ring clamp N2
– Dial 10 ch with a coffee-colored thread (The number of loops depends on the thickness of the ring and the yarn, therefore, having knitted 3-4 rows, you need to try on the clamp on the ring. It should sit very tightly!)
– Turn the work and starting from the 2nd loop, knit 9 sc
– LL and knit back 9sc
So we continue to knit 8 rows Fasten and cut the thread, leaving the end for sewing.
Collar
1) With a red thread, dial 15 ch plus 2LL (17)
2) Turn the work and starting with 3 loops, knit 2 sc in each loop (30)
3) Turn the work and, starting from the first loop, knit 3dc in each loop (90)
4) Turn the work and starting from the first loop, knit 90dc (90).
Leave the end of the thread for sewing
Assembly
Sew the muzzle, filling it with holofiber, to the head between 8 and 2 rows from the middle.
Fold the ears at the base and even in half, sew to the head on the sides between 2 and 5 rows from the middle. Black thread Embroider eyes and nostrils. Embroider a spot on the forehead with a milky thread.
Mane
Cut off dark brown threads 8 cm long in the amount of 30 pieces.
Using a crochet hook, fasten 2 threads along the course of the mane from the crown of the head to the back of the head. At the top of the head, you can cut the length a little and fluff it up. Then sew the clamps to the ringlet and turn the seam inside the ringlet.
Sew the head to the clamp N1. Milking this with the help of pins, mark the middle of the clamp and secure the head so that it is in the center. Further, passing several times in a circle, we firmly sew the head to the clamp so that it does not dangle.
