PATTERN DETAILS:
Included in this pattern are instructions and pictures to crochet a Hammy the Hamster using the no-sew method where ears, feet, and arms are attached in the round with SC. I have also included a text only version of the pattern for those who would like to print the pattern without pictures.

Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate
Pattern designed to be beginner friendly for those new to amigurumi. Requires basic crocheting and sewing skills to attach ears, arms, and feet.

Pattern was made by yarning under rather than yarning over. Do whatever you are comfortable with! Note that if choosing to yarn over, the look and size of your finished project may differ than what is pictured.
