This amigurumi pear is a quick and easy make. While being a great kid’s toy, it’s also idea if you’re brand new to crochet, as it’s quite a simple project to work on. You will need to know how to read a written pattern however.

The pattern is available for free on my blog or as a PDF download that can be purchased from my Ravelry store.

Materials Needed

  • Yarn: Aran/Worsted Weight yarn. I used Rico Designs Creative Cotton Aran in the following colours: Light Green (24 grams = 41 m / s45 yds) and Brown (1 gram = 1.7 m / 1.9 yds).
  • Crochet hook: Size 3.5 mm (E)
  • Other materials: Stuffing, needle, scissors, pins, stitch marker

Pear Size

My Precious Pear turned out to be 14.5 cm / 4.7 “ high and 8 cm / 3.1 “ wide. Please note: I do tend to crochet quite tightly, so your pear may turn out larger.

Gauge

Gauge is not required for this pattern, however for reference my gauge was as follows:
11 sc stitches on 5 cm / 1.96 “
11 rows on 5 cm / 1.96 “

Additional Information

  • Pattern language: English
  • Pattern terms: US terms
  • Stitches used: Magic circle, sc, increases and decreases
  • Yarn: The yarn choice is completely up to you, and you can change the yarn weight, material, and colours based on your own personal preference. Just be aware that the weight of your yarn may impact the hook size you need to use and also the size of your final make.
  • Hook size: I recommend using a smaller hook size than recommended on the yarn label. This will stop the stuffing appearing through your stitches.
  • Working in rounds: All parts within this pattern are worked in continuous rounds.
  • Copyright: You are more than welcome to sell your crocheted creations using this pattern on a small scale. However, the pattern itself cannot be reproduced, sold, or redistributed in any way without the designers’ consent.

Sharing your makes

The best part of crochet designing for me is seeing other people using my patterns and of course, seeing their makes!

If you do decide to crochet the Precious Pear, I would absolutely love to see your make and share it with the community.
