The Schneckenkind Shop offers enchanting crocheted animals in many variations ♥

Teddy BJÖRN is cuddly & chubby and crochets up quite quickly.
When seated, he’s about 23 cm tall (using the specified yarn) and is THE ultimate favorite bear ♥



LOTTA Bear is one of the animals that wears removable clothing.
She’s crocheted with cotton and measures about 32 cm tall (standing).


Both types of amigurumi are available as many different animals. All crochet patterns are explained in great detail and include plenty of detailed photos ♥

A new cuddly toy for Christmas is always a welcome gift for children. And when it’s handmade too, it’s something very special and will be loved dearly!



Cuddly Cat Mauzi is perfect as a baby’s very first cuddly toy. It is crocheted with three yarns of different textures: chenille yarn, plush yarn, and cotton yarn, which gives the little animal an interesting feel for the baby. The body is not stuffed, similar to a comfort blanket, so the baby can grasp it easily. Of course, the eyes and nose are embroidered.



Also very suitable for babies and toddlers is theWarm Bear Kuschel. It is designed as a cover for a grain pillow that you warm in the microwave. This way it helps with tummy aches and other little aches and pains, and it’s also nice for pre-warming the little bed. You can also fill Kuschel’s belly with a regular small pillow. In any case, every child will love going to bed with this cuddly toy.



Slightly older children are sure to be delighted by Alpaca Pamina. It is my granddaughter’s favorite animal. I crocheted it from plush and chenille yarn. To be able to see the stitches better while crocheting with the plush yarn, I crocheted along with a thin cotton yarn as a companion thread. Pamina also turns out very cute if you use a different yarn. With the suggested yarn, she will be about 25 cm tall.

Ruth, your little critters are absolutely charming and cute

Best wishes, Inge

Thanks, dear Inge. They don’t stay with me for long either. They just have four legs to run away with...
