Thank you so much for this beautiful pattern. You are much appreciated <3 can you please make more food Amigurumi things
I love the dog cupcake so much 🌸
I love these animals. keep them coming
Hi I have a question, some of your amigurumi look normal and then some of them have squared X like stitches including this one. Is it because you’re yarning under vs yarning over? I notice the x’s are more noticeable when used with cotton yarns.
Will you ever make a post on the differences with tip?
Yes, you’re right. Thank you for the post idea!
Love your patterns
Love this Tiger, making 2 for Clemson boys. 💕💕💕💕
I am getting ready to try my first Amigurumi! Your patterns seem to be easy to follow! I can’t wait to see how these come out!
Trop mignon ce petit Roméo. Je sens qu’il va bientôt faire partie de ma collection. Merci pour ce tuto.
Merci!
How can I print this off? I live in an area that internet service is not always up. I found on Pintrest. It said that it was a free pattern, but I can’t get it to copy & paste. I do not sell them but make them for kids. I would appreciate your help.
Online version of the pattern is free, but if you want to print the pattern, you have to buy it.
Thank you for this cute one
What weight of yarn should I use?
I would love to make this but can’t buy anything without knowing the weight.
I would like to use the right weight to get my toy to look nice
Baby or sport weight yarn
Is anyone else having issues with the muzzle? When I add the orange it isn’t lining up with where it should be.
Quiero preguntar algo con todo respeto y sin intención de molestar
He visto que varias comparten sus hermosos patrones gratuitos de aquí con captura ? Eso tiene algún problema ? 😟 Quisiera saber muchas gracias
It’s really hard to find baby/sport yarn. Can I use yarn weight 4 (worsted) and crochet size 4.5? Would that negatively affect the result or the tiger would just be bigger? Thank you!
It will just be bigger! I used worsted and a 3.5 hook for another pattern that called for similar yarn and hook and it ended up a little less than twice as big
Hi would like to know if i carry the white with the orange when doing the face, because when I do the orange shows through the white is there a video so I can see how it’s done.
