Pokemon Pachirisu Crochet Amigurumi Animal

Posted by Super Madcow

About

This was my first attempt at an amigurumi animal.

I found the thought of doing this Pokemon was much more stressful than actually doing it. It is a little challenging but nothing too bad. I think it was because it was my first attempt and I was a little cautious.

Don't be put off, give it a go as it is rewarding to see the final toy, the only thing is your kids/family will have a list of Pokemon that they want you to make for them.

Good luck and give it a go.

This pattern is not my own pattern but I found it on the internet.

This pattern is an original pattern by Linda Potts (March 2009).
