Making your very own small blueberry amigurumi is like weaving a bit of magic with yarn and a hook. Imagine taking soft, cuddly cotton and, with simple loops and stitches, creating a cute little blueberry that fits in the palm of your hand. You start with a magical ring that will form the base, then carefully build up the sides with neat rows of crochet.
Crochet Small Blueberry Amigurumi Pattern
Each stitch brings you closer to a tiny stem and a round berry body that’s so huggable! Once you stuff it with filling, it becomes plump and cheerful. Then you add a petite crown on top to give your berry its signature look. It's a delightful project that turns a few hours into a keepsake as a mini blueberry that brings a sprinkle of crafty joy!
Materials Needed:
- Baby cotton yarn
- Crochet hook size 1.6 mm
Green Part (Stem of the Blueberry):
- Start by creating a magic ring.
- Crochet 8 single crochet stitches into the magic ring.
- Pull the thread to close the ring.
- Slip stitch into the first stitch to join and chain 1 to start the next round.
First Round (Increase):
- In the next row, increase in every stitch by crocheting two single crochets into the back loop only of each stitch for a total of 16 stitches. You will do this 8 times (8 increases).
- Close the row with a slip stitch and chain 1 for the next row.
Next Three Rounds (No Increases):
- Crochet 16 single crochets, one in each stitch around without increasing.
- Close each round with a slip stitch and chain 1 for the next row.
- Repeat this for a total of three rounds.
Decreasing Rounds:
- Start decreasing by single crocheting two stitches together, eight times in total (8 decreases).
- Close the row and chain 1.
Stuffing:
- Add fiberfill to your crocheted piece to give it shape.
Closing:
- Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail.
- Use a needle to weave through the front loop of the remaining stitches.
- Pull the thread to close the opening.
- Weave in the end inside the blueberry to hide it.
Making the Crown:
- Go back to the stem and insert the hook into a stitch of the first row.
- Chain 3, then slip stitch into the next stitch.
- Repeat the process of chain 3, slip stitch around the stem to create a little crown.
- Once finished, cut the yarn and pull the thread to the backside.
Finishing:
- Weave in any remaining ends into the blueberry to hide them.
- Use the hook to adjust and hide any visible threads.
