Materials & Tools Checklist
To bring these crochet ducks to life, you will need a couple of simple supplies. Here is what you should prepare before you start:
- light worsted yarn (e.g. YarnArt Jeans Plus or Red Heart Super Saver)
- 2.75 mm hook
- 12 mm safety eyes
- stuffing
- yarn needle
If you don’t have any polyfill at hand, yarn scraps make a great substitute for such a small project. Instead of plastic safety eyes, you can also embroider the eyes with a black crochet thread, for example, when you intend to give it to a child as a toy.
How to Crochet Your Pocket Duck
This duck crochet pattern is great for beginners because it works up really fast with just basic stitches and a bit of shaping. It features a charming ragdoll style, distinctive of Spin a Yarn Crochet designs. The toy is constructed from two identical body panels, stuffed and sewn together. Once both parts are done, you will add feet, a beak, and extra accessories like a scarf or bow.
Customize Your Duck – Make It Yours
If these cute little duckies have captured your heart, don’t hesitate to make more than one! How about finishing off each piece with different embellishments? For example, consider adding a tiny tie for a boy or a flower applique for a girly touch. You can play around with their facial expressions, too!
