Why These Crochet Dinosaurs Are Irresistible
To keep things interesting, the pattern provides instructions for three different dinosaurs: brontosaurus, stegosaurus, and triceratops. Every fan of these prehistoric creatures will surely appreciate their detailed design.
You can even switch to neutral colors to give your crocheted dinosaurs a more realistic look. If not, stick with neon-like shades lending playful, cartoonish vibes. Either way, be sure to craft a whole set for a charming dinosaur herd!
What You’ll Need Before You Start
This adorable crochet dinosaur amigurumi pattern calls for light acrylic yarn and a 3.5 mm hook. The samples were made with Let’s Get Crafting Knitting & Crochet Acrylic DK, but any other yarn should work great too. Just make sure it has the same weight – otherwise, your dinosaurs will be different sizes.
Before getting down to this project, prepare some stuffing and three pairs of safety eyes if you intend to make an entire set. To make your dinosaurs poseable, you can also consider inserting pipe cleaners into their necks and tails.
Techniques Used In This Dinosaur Amigurumi Pattern
The dinosaurs are worked mostly with basic amigurumi techniques. Each piece begins with a magic ring and then follows with simple double crochets. You will also use increases and decreases to shape dinosaurs’ iconic looks.
Fun Ways to Use Your Desk Dinos
These pocket crochet dinosaur amigurumi are great for both young aspiring palaeontologists and older dinosaur enthusiasts.
If your kid collects everything that has to do with these magnificent ancient reptiles, I’m sure they will be more than pleased to welcome this handmade pack of dinosaur plushies. They will make fun playtime companions as well as charming desk buddies for the office.
