Valerie the Koala
My amigurumi koala pattern is suitable for beginners. I’ve kept the instructions clear, explained abbreviations the first time they are used, and linked to some handy guides for anyone with a bit less experience.
I’ve noted the brands of yarn I used for you below, but this pattern will work up just fine in any aran weight yarn of similar colors. I stayed away from plain black yarn for the nose as it can give a bit of an overly separated look to these natural animal themed crochet patterns.
50g Knit Craft, Leader of the Pac, aran yarn in mink
50g Knit Craft, Leader of the Pac, aran yarn in cream
5g Life Aran by Stylecraft, in mixtures charcoal
5mm crochet hook
Two safety eyes (ideally blue or brown rimmed)
Toy safe stuffing
Yarn needle
I recommend marking your stitches as you work in the round, which you can do with stitch markers or yarn scraps as you prefer.
