My name is Kateryna and I’m from Ukraine. I’m a toy maker and crochet pattern designer. This pattern is my original design. It consists of 24 pages of step by step crocheting instructions with quality photos and short videos with crochet tips.

The pattern doesn’t contain crochet lessons. You need to have basic crochet skills and good knowledge of crochet terminology.

The pattern is the property of the designer and any copying and distribution (partial or complete) is prohibited!

You can use the finished toy to your own discretion.

The size of the finished toy with the use of recommended materials and 4.0 mm crochet hook: ~30-31 cm (~12 inches) high with ears.
Pay attention that in case of using materials other than listed your toy size will differ from mine.

Recommended materials and tools:

  1. Plush chunky yarn 100 gr/120 m (#6 Super Bulky). I use Himalaya Dolphin Baby. For squirrel #1 I used 1,5 of skeins #80316 (orange). For squirrel #2 I used 1,5 of skeins #80323 (peach). For mushroom I used #80342 (beige), #80336 (brown). For acorn I used #80353 (yogurt), #80337 (caramel).
  2. Fur-like yarn for breast and ears crocheting in white color. I used YarnArt Mink (50 gr/75 m). You can use for example Alize Softy (50gr/115 m) for this too.
  3. Black, white color semi-cotton yarn for embroidery and body color for tightening. I use YarnArt Jeans (50g/160 m) #53, #52, #77, #73.
  4. 4.0 mm hook (US size G/6) or any other suitable for your crocheting density.
  5. Filling (hollofiber or fiberfill for stuffing).
  6. 20 mm safety eyes.
  7. 14 mm safety eye (only one for nose in black color).
  8. Yarn needle, pins, stitch marker and scissors.
