Seen those cute yellow rubber duckies with crochet jumpers? Wanted to make some of your own? Check out my pattern now.

SKILL LEVEL: Easy to intermediate. You must be comfortable with increasing and decreasing.

TIME: Depends on how fast you crochet, but I can knock one of these out in less than half an hour.

MATERIALS:

  • Plastic or rubber duck. I prefer to use the medium sized ones ones used in my photo examples are 9cm in length x 7cm in height but once you get familiar with the pattern, you can adjust it for other sized ducks.
  • Size G - 4.0mm crochet hook
  • 8ply acrylic yarn the ducks tend to sink if you use wool or cotton yarn
  • 2x stitch markers
  • Needle
  • Scissors

GAUGE: Not important in this pattern as it’s very much a “make it up as you go” sort of pattern.
