Free Crochet Pattern for Dustbunny - Amigurumi from My Neighbor Totoro

Amigurumi from My Neighbor Totoro

Material:-

• Worsted-weight yarn, Black colour
• F/5 3.75mm crochet hook
• Poly-Fil or any stuffing of your choice
• Yarn needle
• Two plastic safety eyes
• White colour Felt

Abbreviation Key:-

• sc = single crochet
• ch = chain
• sl st = slip stitch
• dec = decrease ( join next 2 sts into 1 )
• inc = increase ( 2 sc in next st )

Notes:-

• This crochet Dustbunny was my lovely weekend project, just keep a consistent tension throughout the entire project.
• Crochet in a spiral. Use something to mark the first stitch of a round and move it up as you work.
• "The Magic Circle" is use to start each piece. Alternative technique: ch 2, then sc x6 into the second chain away from the hook. Slip stitch to join the round. This creates Round 1.
