Barrold the Badger Crochet Amigurumi Pattern (English)

Barrold loves rummaging around in the undergrowth looking for food (worms are his favourite). He’s rarely spotted in the daytime but comes out after dark, usually getting up to mischief with his friend, Fraser the fox. He sits just under 8 inches tall (when made with the recommended materials).

The 11 page pattern is intermediate skill level and is available in US terminology. It is clear to follow with detailed instructions and lots of pictures for step by step making and assembly. There are also picture instructions for colour change, back loop only and invisible finish.

The following stitches/techniques are used in this pattern:
