Before You Start – Prepare These Materials
To make this cute crochet mouse, you need a couple of supplies. The pattern calls for sport weight cotton yarn such as Schachenmayr Catania in grey and pink colors.
For best results and proper measurements, use a 3 mm crochet hook that works great for lightweight yarns and working detailed amigurumi designs. You will also need a bit of polyfill stuffing or yarn scrap to fill up the mouse.
To finish your project off, use 6 mm safety eyes. If the toy is intended for small children, it’s better to go for embroidered eyes instead of plastic ones.
Crocheting Your Lisa the Mouse
This crochet mouse pattern will suit those who have some amigurumi projects behind them. However, beginners with an adventurous spirit can give it a go too!
The pattern uses single crochet and double crochet stitches, shaping, sewing, and working small details, which might be the trickiest part of this project.
You will work this amigurumi in continuous rounds, except for the bow, which is made in rows. All parts are crocheted separately and then sewn together to bring the mouse to life.
How Big Is Lisa the Mouse When Finished?
The size of your mouse amigurumi will depend on the chosen materials. However, if you decide to follow the exact instructions and pattern the supplies suggestions, the Mommy mouse will be a bit bigger than the palm of your hand.
How To Make The Head More Stable?
Drooping head is a common problem with amigurumi. To prevent this from happening, you can use a pipe cleaner to give it more structure and make it stable. Make sure to insert it inside before closing the head and body and sewing them together.
