This cute little piggy here is made in one piece. The arms and legs will be crocheted in. You’ll only have to sew on the ears and muzzle in the end. Mr. Lucky has dangling legs and thus can only sit and not stand unsupported.

Pigs are a symbol of good luck in the German culture. It is tradition that we gift loved ones and friends with a „good luck pig“, sometimes accompanied by a four-leafed clover, at New Year’s Eve to make sure their New Year will be a good and wealthy one. Quite often we find pigs on a birthday cake, give them away for important life steps, exams, surgeries, anything someone can use a bit extra luck for.

Required skills:
magic ring, chains, single crochets, double crochets, slip stitch, crocheting in contiuous rounds as well as in closed rounds, increase, decrease, color change

The pattern includes 21 pages and is quite simple. Even ambitioned beginners should have fun making this cute pig. If you have already done one or the other amigurumi, you should not have any problems.
