Alpine Cow crochet pattern by Amigurumi Today

This wonderfully crocheted Alpine Cow is all about having a good time and making everyone happy! It can’t solve all of your problems, do your chores, or make your homework disappear but it can make all of those things a lot more fun than they would be without a cheerful companion by your side. See? You’re smiling already!

To crochet the Alpine Cow you need:

  • 4 ply semi-cotton yarn Yarnart Jeans (160 m / 50 g) in white, black, light pink and light gray colors
  • 2 mm crochet hook
  • 8 mm safety eyes or button eyes
  • Pink embroidery floss for nostrils
  • Satin ribbon and a small bell
  • Fiberfill for stuffing
  • Scissors and sewing needle

Skill level: easy

The approximate size of finished crochet cow is 16 cm (6.3″) when sitting.

    I really like the cow, and sure it make me laugh when I saw it. Thanks for the pattern, looks very easy to do it with your written instructions. I definitely will try to make it, that will be my favorite toy that makes me laugh, even when I don’t have a reason to laugh in my hard ship. Thanks.
