This is a pattern I’ve had marinating in my mind for a long, long time. I absolutely love the wigglers from Monster Hunter World, to the point where the Wiggler head layered armour became a bit of a permanent fixture on my character. It goes with everything, I promise.

And now I’ve finally crocheted it! The body and pot itself are fairly simple, but it took me awhile to figure out a way to make its little frills and the spots along its body. This is also the first time I’ve designed a pattern that’s intended to be worked in a spiral, so I had to do a lot of research on how to make the colour change in the pots smooth. I eventually found some helpful resources on that, and there’ll be a photo tutorial on it when it comes up in the pattern.

The wiggler stands at about 5.5” (14 cm) from the base of the pot to the top of the head. A small cardboard round at the base helps it stand up properly.

You can spend a loonie and get a nice printable pdf version of the pattern or check it out on my website for free.
