With this crochet Minnie Mouse amigurumi pattern, you can introduce your bundle of joy to your nostalgic cartoon character in a rewarding and fun way. They will surely not resist this chibi doll, specially designed for the little ones and every girl's taste. Follow through the video tutorial provided below and prepare this charming gift!
Supplies Needed
While crocheting this Minnie Mouse amigurumi, the tutor mentions and uses these specific tools and materials. Check out their list:
- Yarn 4 ply: white, cream, black, pink, and dark pink color yarn (both for the Mickey and Minnie Mouse). (You can either use cotton or acrylic yarn. The cotton has a nice stitch definition, holds its shape well, and is washable. On the other hand, the acrylic is easy to work with and comes in many colors.)
- 4 -5 mm crochet hook
- Fiberfill for stuffing
- Sewing needle and scissors
Crochet Minnie Mouse Tutorial
Below, I have provided 4 video tutorials (actually 4 parts for one amigurumi) that will guide every stitch. The tutor has also provided a guide for the Mickey Mouse amigurumi (so check if your little one loves that guy)
Abbreviations
While following this crochet Minnie Mouse video tutorial, you will find the instructions on the screens using abbreviations. Below are the meanings for each of the instructions:
- R = round
- mr = magic ring
- sc = single crochet
- inc = increase (2 sc in the next stitch)
- dec = decrease (join the next 2 stitches into 1)
- sl st = slip stitch
- st = stitch
- ch = chain
- F.O = finish off
- [ ] = number of stitches you should have at the end of the round/row
- ( ) x 6 = repeat whatever is between the brackets the number of times stated
Face (Without Ears)
The tutor crochets a little squeezed sphere using two colors in this part. The black color will be mostly used behind the sphere to mimic the hairs, while the front part uses skin color to show off the face. You will attach the safety eyes and nose in the front part.
Legs + Body
This part is dedicated to crocheting Minnie Mouse legs in chibi style. They are not sewn and crocheted together as one unit. The body will be crocheted at the top around the legs in colors different from the legs.
Ears, Arm, Tail, Bow
All the smaller details sewn to the body and face will be crocheted in this session. These are little arms, a long tail, a large bow, and ears, which consist of two attached rounds.
Assembly
The last step will be to sew every part crocheted in the previous parts as one amigurumi. Tail in the back, arms on each side, ears on the top of the face, and small rounds on the legs. This step can involve embroidering the facial expressions. But for the Minnie Mouse doll, the tutor skips this process. However, you can do this if you want.
