This stuffed virus is a great toy and educational tool for those studying or teaching biology or medicine. Perfect for a silly gift or to keep in a classroom as an educational prop! It is modeled after the actual shape of the virus. It’s not perfectly to scale, but it’s cute!


The pattern features 3 pages with clear instructions and many photographs to illustrate the details of the trickier bits. The pattern is suitable for anyone with a basic crochet knowledge. This is also a great way to use up a partial skein of yarn that has been sitting around gathering dust!

E/4 (3.5mm) crochet hook
Tapestry needle
Fiberfill stuffing
