Friday, May 2, 2025

Blog-Inhaltsbild für 'Kostenlose Häkelanleitung für Henne'

Looking for a cute plushie crochet pattern? One of the most charming projects you can make is crocheting a plush wolf. Whether for a child's toy, a home decoration, or as a delightful gift, a crochet wolf is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face. Crochet the most adorable plushie with this detailed pattern! It comes with easy-to-follow written instructions and photo tutorial. The photo tutorial contains helpful step-by-step pictures to make the project as easy to follow as possible. For your magical moments or as a nice gift for someone special! So, grab your hook, heat up a cup of hot cocoa or coffee and let’s make this little buddy together.

SUPPLIES YOU NEED

Before you begin, make sure you have the following materials:

ca 100 gr Gründl Funny Uni 120 m/ 100gr, crochet hook 4 mm, safety eyes or 2 black beads or buttons, Polyester fiberfill or any stuffing material of your choice, scissors, safety nose, yarn needle for weaving in ends and sewing parts together.

Using different materials and hook size to what is recommended may alter the final appearance of your amigurumi.

SKILL LEVEL

I would classify this free crochet pattern as an advanced beginner. It is necessary to have some experience with amigurumi before creating this project.

SIZE  

The ready amigurumi is approx. 25 cm high, from bottom to top, can be made bigger or smaller depending on the yarn and hook you use.

SKILLS YOU NEED

chain, single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, slip stitch, increase, decrease, front post double crochet

ABBREVIATIONS

Here are the abbreviations used in this pattern:

Ch =chain

St = stitch

Sc = single crochet

Sl st = slip stitch

dec = decrease stitch (two single crochets together)

inc = increase stitch (two single crochets in the same stitch)

Dc = double crochet

Hdc = half double crochet

Tc = treble crochet

Rnd = Round

* = repeat the instructions for the times indicated

(...) = at the end of every round total amount of stitches is indicated

TIPS

  • Do not join rounds, work in a continuous spiral
  • This pattern doesn´t include any specific stitch tutorials
  • Use a stitch marker or piece of yarn to keep track of the last stitch in each round
  • All stitches are worked into both loops, unless stated otherwise in the pattern
  • When filling with polyester stuffing, pull apart each large chunk into many smaller chunks. This ensures an even distribution of firmness within the amigurumi
  • Amigurumi can be made in any desired colors.

Seamless way of changing color when working in the round

Pick up the new color at the end of the round: inset your hook into the stitch, yarn over the new color and pull through the stitch and the loop on your hook to complete the stitch.

To make a magic ring

  1. Loop the thread twice around your middle finger
  2. Put the hook under both loops, pull the yarn under the loops and hook the thread again
  3. Pull the thread through the new loop. The first crochet stitch is ready!
  4. Repeat the number of times needed.
  5. Pull the inner threads to tighten the ring.

INSTRUCTIONS

The wolf consists of several parts which you crochet separately and then sew them together.

Rounds 9-16: single crochet in each of next 12 stitches

SHIFT STITCH

Sometimes during the work of the spiral amigurumi, you need to keep the work symmetrically. As work tends to twist to the right you need to adjust the position of the marker periodically (beginning of the round).

Shift stitch is an extra stitch you work at the end of a round to make your work look symmetrical. If you notice that marker moves right, you need to work one extra stitch at the end of the round and move marker for one stitch (now the second stitch of the round becomes first). This is shift stitch.

The shift stitch is not included in the round description. To check if it’s time to work shift stitch fold your work in half and check if marker still goes straight or use a yarn that marks a straight line.

You may think this is an increase, but it isn’t. This way you don’t increase or decrease the number of stitches. The stitches count remains the same.

BODY
