This Kawaii Snake Plant initially featured in Crochet Now magazine in 2024 (UK terms). Now available as an individual pattern in US terminology.

This is an easy design . A knowledge of how to crochet is essential as this pattern does not teach you how to crochet, it simply provides instructions for you to make the toys.

Your tension, yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of your finished item. My Snake Plant is 13cm tall x 9cm wide

You will need:

  • 2.5mm hook/C-2 (US)
  • 8ply yarns/DK or Light Worsted > 25g of PEACH, less than 25g of ORANGE, LIME, GREEN and YELLOW
  • BLACK embroidery thread
  • Scissors
  • Tapestry needle
  • Polyester toy stuffing
  • Stitch marker (optional)

Notes:

  • Amigurumi is usually stitched in the round and a yarn with no stretch is best.
  • When changing colour, pull through the new colour on the stitch before you need it. This will ensure that you have the correct colour yarn on the hook for the upcoming stitch.
  • Generally, the hook you use for amigurumi will be a smaller than for other crochet as you want the stitches tight.
  • I’ve used Ricorumi DK in the following: o PEACH = col. 023 Peach o ORANGE = col. 024 Smokey Orange o LIME = col. 047 Pistachio o GREEN = col. 043 Ivy o YELLOW = col. 006 Yellow
