Rnd 28. (3sc, dec) x6 (24)
Start to stuff the head firmly.
Rnd 29. (dec) x12 (12)
Rnd 30. 12sc in FLO. (12)
Continue stuffing the head. I always stuff the cheeks a bit more, like that the head looks wider at the bottom. Don’t cut the yarn off, we will carry-on crocheting the body.
Face modeling
When modeling the face, you can let your imagination go wild. To give it an even cuter look, you can deepen the eyes (there are several tutorials on how to do that). If you want to embroider the eyes, use black and white cotton yarn and a colour of your choice. The embroidered eyes are between round 19 and 21 in the brighter part of the face. They go vertical over 3 stitches and are about 10 visible stitches apart. They are made with approx. 4 black threads, bordered on the outside with a coloured thread and white thread.
The highlight in the eyes is placed in the middle and about 1 stitch long. You can make an additional small white spot into the eye. Make the spot restraint. Add the lashes over 3 stitches. The eyebrows are made with thin black thread, over 1 stitch slightly angled. There length is about 3 stitches. If you are using safety eyes you can add the eye white with some white thread and embroider with black the lashes and eyebrows.
Body
Carry on crocheting with blue (main colour)
Rnd 1. (inc) x12 (24)
Rnd 2. 24sc (24)
Rnd 3. (3sc, inc) x6 (30)
Rnd 4-5. 30sc (2 rounds) (30)
Rnd 6. 2sc, inc, (4sc, inc) x5, 2sc (36)
Rnd 7. 36sc (36)
Rnd 8. (5sc, inc) x6 (42)
Rnd 9. 3sc, inc, (6sc, inc) x5, 3sc (48)
Rnd 10-12. 48sc (3 rounds) (48)
The increase of the next round should be at the back of the body, this will be the butt. Maybe you have to move the increase, that they are centered at the back.
Rnd 13. 36sc, (1sc, inc) x6 (54)
Rnd 14. 54sc (54) (54)
Rnd 15. (7sc, dec) x6 (54) (48)
Rnd 16. 3sc, dec, (6sc, dec) x5, 3sc (42)
The decrease of the next round should be at the back of the body where the increase were of round 13. Maybe you have to move the decrease, so they are centered at the back.
Rnd 17. 24sc, (1sc, dec) x6 (36)
Rnd 18. 2sc, dec, (4sc, dec) x5, 2sc (30)
Rnd 19. (3sc, dec) x6 (24)
Rnd 20. 1sc, dec, (2sc, dec) x5, 1sc (18)
Rnd 21. (1sc, dec) x6 (12)
Rnd 22. (dec) x6 (6)
Stuff the body firmly with filling, best is to start with the stuffing at round 19. Pull the yarn through the FLO of the remaining 6 sc, to close the hole and fasten off.
We crocheted the body part of the Amigurumi bird pattern. Now let’s crochet the hat
Beanie / Hat
Now we crochet in rows. Use the same colour as you used for the neckerchief:
Leave a long starting yarn and chain 25 and 1 tch. Now you crochet 25 hdc in the BLO and 1 tch until it fits around Tori’s head. Make sure that the last row doesn’t end on the same side as the starting yarn (if so make 1 row less or more). Pull the yarn through the last stitch, cut if generously off and sew the ends. You can also crochet the ends with sc together. Next you guide the yarn evenly through the loops of the edge (e.g. 1cm)
At the end both yarns should come together. Pull the yarn together so the hole on top of the hat closes. Now you tie the yarns together and sew the ends. If you like you can sew on a pompom. You can make with a pompom marker or a fork.
Claws
Crochet 4x (yellow)
Rnd 1. 6sc in MR (6)
Rnd 2. (1sc, inc) x3 (9)
Rnd 3. 9sc (9)
Rnd 4. (1sc, dec) x3 (6)
Rnd 5. 6sc (6)
After the first claw fasten off and sew the end. Repeat the above for the second claw, but this time don’t fasten off. The claws don’t get stuffed. Chain 1 and connect both claws with a sc, 5sc around the other claw, 1sc in the ch, 6sc in the 1st claw and 1sc in the ch. (14).
The claws don’t get stuffed.
Rnd 2. (5sc, dec) x2 (12)
Rnd 3. (2sc, dec) x3 (9)
Rnd 4. 8sc, ch (9)
Rnd 5. 2ch, skip 3sc, 7sc (9)
Rnd 6. (dec, 1sc) x3 (6)
Pull the yarn through the FLO of the remaining 6sc, close the hole the sew the end. Repeat above for the second foot.
Legs
(Yellow)
The legs are crocheted directly on the claws “free space”. Attach the thread new to a stitch in the free space (no matter where). (This will be your 1st stitch of the leg). In theory the “free space” only has 6 stitches. So that there is no hole, crochet in both sides left and right a sc.
Rnd 1. 3sc, sc on the side, 3sc in the ch, sc in the side (8)
Rnd 2-6. 8sc (5 rounds) (8)
Colour change to blue (main colour)
Rnd 7. (1sc, inc) x4 (12)
Rnd 8. (1sc, inc ) x6 (18)
Rnd 9-10. 18 sc (2 rounds) (18)
End the round with a slst. Leave a long tail to sew the legs later to the body. Repeat the above for the 2nd leg.
Beak
Beak (yelllow)
Rnd 1. 6sc in MR (6) (6)
Rnd 2. (inc) x6 (12) (12)
Rnd 3-4. 12sc (2 rounds) (12)
In the next round we will be making the bottom part of the beak.
Rnd 5. 1sc in one sc crochet the following: (1sc, 1hdc, 1dc, 1tr, 1dc, 1hdc, 1sc) 1sc. (9)
Finish the round with a slst and leave a long tail to sew the beak later to the head.
Wings
Start with blue (main colour ) and make 2
Rnd 1. 8sc in MR (8)
Rnd 2. (inc) x8 (16)
Rnd 3. (1sc, inc) x8 (24)
Rnd 4. 1sc, inc, (2sc, inc) x7, 1sc (32)
Rnd 5. (3sc, inc) x8 (40)
Rnd 6. 2sc, inc, (4sc, inc) x7, 2sc (48)
Rnd 7. (5hdc, hdc inc) x8 (56)
Colour change to middle blue (1st secondary colour )
Rnd 8. 3hdc, hdc inc (6hdc, hdc inc) x7, 3hdc (64)
Colour change to a dark blue (2nd secondary colour)
Fold the wings in half and crochet them together as follows: (7ch, 1sc) x26, in the last 6 stitches (per side) only sc.
The wings don’t get stuffed. Pull the thread through the last stich and finish off.
Leave a long tail to sew the wings later to the body.
Tail
Start with dark blue (2nd secondary colour)
Rnd 1. Starting in the 2nd stitch from the needle: 12sc on the one side of the chain, 12sc on the opposite side of the chain (24)
Rnd 2-3. 24sc (2 rounds) (24)
Colour change to middle blue (1 st secondary colour)
Rnd 4. 24 sc (24)
Rnd 5. (dec, 10 sc) x 2 (22)
Change colour to blue (main colour)
Rnd 6. 22 sc (22)
Rnd 7. (dec, 9 sc) x 2 (20)
Rnd 8-9. 20 sc (2 rounds) (20)
Rnd 10. (dec, 8 sc) x 2 (18)
Rnd 11. (dec, 7 sc) x 2 (16)
Rnd 12. 16 sc (16)
Rnd 13. (dec, 6 sc) x 2 (14)
Rnd 14. (dec, 5 sc) x 2 (12)
Rnd 15. 12 sc (12)
The tail doesn’t get stuffed. Fold it together and crochet it with 6 sc together.
Cut yarn leaving a long tail, to sew it later to the body.
Finishing
Sew everything together
Sew the beak between round 20 and 23. It should lie under the top of the dark part of the head, therefore in the brighter part. The beak does not get stuffed. The feet get sewn to the bottom middle of the body, between round 11 and 22. Stuff the upper part of the leg whilst sewing it on, Tori will stand a bit more stable that way. The claws should point to the front. Sew the wings left and right on the single crochet part between round 1 and 6 slightly angled to the body, like that the wings stay flexible. The top part of the wings should lie in line with the top of the head and legs. Pay attention that the wings lie in the correct direction. The tail gets sewn to round 15 with the one coloured part laying on the middle of the body. It should lie in the middle of legs and wings.
Congratulations, you have completed the amigurumi bird Tori pattern.
