Cute little alien amigurumi arrived! Acquire some green yarn for this funny guy and some vivid yarn to make a jumpsuit for him.

Let’s get started!

Abbreviations:
sc = single crochet
inc = increase (2 sc in one stitch)
dec = decrease

Rnd 6: (sc in the next st, dec) repeat 6 times [12]
Rnd 7-9: sc in all 12 st Stuff the arm. Don;t stuff the upper part, otherwise the arms will stick out, and that’s not nice.

Rnd 20: Fold the arm together and crochet 3 sc through both layers.

Legs:
Make 2: I made striped trousers with different width of stripes. You may make them in one colour or add more colours. When changing colours people often get unbeautiful diagonal shift. It means that colours change diagonally. Take note of that. To avoid this make 1-2 shifting stitches in the round where the colour is changed.
Start with the colour of trousers.
