Do you want to push yourself a little with your crochet skills? Then why not give Eli the Elf a try! Eli is a beginner shape with some extra fun little details like his collar which is worked after the body is finished.

This crochet amigurumi elf pattern is perfect for beginners and neurodivergent crafters. The abbreviated instructions are followed by a breakdown in italics making it easier to understand what you need to do in each round. If you’ve had trouble reading patterns in the past, we hope that you’ll give our tater tot patterns a try!

One of the best things about these patterns is that they only use a tiny amount of yarn, so get out your scraps. Just remember that the hook size will depend on your yarn thickness and tension. So, experiment with what works best for you!

Using DK yarn and a 3mm hook, our Eli is approximately 9cm tall. The size will vary depending on yarn used and tension.
