Is The Pickup Truck Pattern Difficult?
The Pickup Truck crochet pattern by Kwannie Cheng is an advanced-level project. You not only need to know amigurumi techniques very well, but also feel comfortable working with a fine lace and small hook. The car features an intricate design that requires precision and attention to small details.
What Supplies Do I Need To Make The Pickup Truck?
Apart from a 1.25 mm crochet hook and lace yarn such as Scheepjes Maxi Sweet Treat, you will need a couple of additional supplies. Before you get started, prepare a piece of cardboard (1.3 mm, 825 gr) and a slice of plastic. You will use them to create the car templates and windows. You will also need some fiber stuffing, duct tape, and two small buttons.
How Big Is The Finished Pickup Truck?
The finished crochet car is 4 inches tall and 4.3 inches wide, so it’s perfect for play and easy to display on a desk or shelf. Although it’s not super giant, it has all the features, including a driver’s seat, car windows, doors, wipers and a steering wheel. I mean, who wouldn’t want a toy like that?
