Blooper Plushie

By JC Designs


SIZE
Apprx. Height 10” and width from the widest point 4”

MATERIALS
*Crochet hook size 4mm
*Worsted weight yarn: White (apprx. 55g)
*Felt in small amounts: Black & White
*Yarn needle

PATTERN NOTES
  Gauge isn't all that important, but your hook and yarn choices should result in a fairly tight stitch so that the stuffing won't show through.
  Numbers in ( ) at the end of each round or row indicate the total number of stitches for that round or row.

ASSEMBLY:
  I highly recommend pinning all the pieces together before sewing anything to make sure you have all the pieces done right and that you get them in the positions you like best before sewing. It seems like alot of extra work, but this will save you ALOT of hassle.
  The only thing to pin and sew are the tentacles that go on the side.
  Eyes are constructed from felt. See pictures for guidance on how to get your eyes to look like.



Hope you enjoy your new plushie.

  1. It's coming along very well! My grandson wanted this little guy. It is my first REAL amigurumi.

  2. Please help!!!

    For round 2, I have 4sc to work with, if I make 1sc and then 2 in each of the 3 left, I have 7 stitches.

    For round 3 I have 7 stitches to work. I make 2sc, there are 5 left, I make 2sc in each and I end up with 12.

    And so on... :(

    1. Hello Jose,

      For round 2 it reads... sc in next sc, 2sc in next sc around (6)
      What you're suppose to do is... sc, 2sc, sc, 2sc which totals 6 stitches at the end.

      For round 3 it reads... sc in next 2sc, 2sc in next sc around (8)
      What you're supposed to do is... sc, sc, 2sc, sc, sc, 2sc which totals 8 stitches at the end.

      When it reads around you repeat everything in that round or row as indicated unless stated otherwise. Hopefully this helps out.


      Have a lovely day/night.
      -Janet
