SALLY
Sally the amigurumi pony is a soft teddy, knit from mainly single crochet in spirals. The ­different parts are made ­separately and are then assembled using a ­tapestry needle.

The original pattern used two strands of Kambgarn, a soft ­merino wool yarn produced in Iceland. The updated version uses one strand of Peruvian ­Highland wool. If you use any other yarn, pick a crochet hook that is one size (1 mm) smaller than ­recommended for that ­particular yarn. That way the stitches will be tight enough to not show the stuffing.

The pony is easy to ­individualize by adding for example a blaze while making it, or by stitching on white markings afterwards. Gauge is not important in this project, but a thicker yarn or a larger needle will produce a ­larger pony. The pony in the photos measures approximately 20x20 cm.

The pattern uses US crochet terms.

The pattern includes detailed instructions and step-by-step photos and should be suitable for a beginner or almost-beginner.

Available in English and in Swedish (both are available for download when you purchase the pattern).
