Chi the Guinea pig Amigurumi crochet pattern
Please check the disclaimer
about the use of this pattern
Thank you!
For this pattern you will need:
- Dark pink or violet yarn 4 mm
- Two Plastic safety eyes
- white and pink thread
- Fiberfill stuffing
- White felt
Hook size:
For this pattern I am using a 4 mm hook but you can use a smaller or bigger. The bigger the hook the less tight the stitches and the bigger your amigurumi. If you use the hook I am recomending in this pattern and tour fabric still looks loose (you can see the stuffing) you should use a smaller hook.

- Sts: Stitches

- Sc: single crochet
- sc2tog: single crochet 2 stitches together
- 2sc: two single crochet

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FACE:
- For the face and back we use white felt
but other white cloth can work as well.
Draw the shape of the face onto the felt and cut.
Sew or glue (wood glue) the felt piece on place.
Same goes for the spot on the back. - Insert safety eyes remembering to cut the excess of plastic from them.
- Embroider a cute pink nose and the line of the mouth.
- Add some make up to the cheeks so your guinea pig can look happy and cute.
