Horse, Donkey, Zebra Amigurumi Free Pattern


 

Hello amigurumi lovers and beautiful visitors, I wanted to share the free amigurumi patterns for you here. In my article, I will share one pattern and how to make it for you. At the end of my article, I will share amigurumi patterns that can generate ideas for you.

Supplies:

  • Yarn colors in size 4/Medium Yarn… See below this pattern information for colors needed for your specific horse!
  • 4mm Crochet Hook
  • 12mm safety eyes
  • Tapestry needle
  • Scissors
  • Stuffing

Additional Information:

Getting started…
Each horse uses the same pattern, but some techniques will be slightly different depending on which one you choose to make. We first start making the nose, which leads into the head. While doing this, we leave an opening so we can form the neck from that opening. After forming the neck, it will lead into the body. Essentially, the nose, head, neck, and body are one connected piece! After this, we will make all of the other parts.

Recommended Yarns:
JoAnn Fabric’s "Big Twist" Yarn
Red Heart Super Saver Yarn
Hobby Lobby’s "I Love This Yarn!"

Front Head Hair:
Use dark brown for horse. Use dark grey for donkey. Use black for zebra.
To make the hair, cut many pieces of roughly ~4″ yarn. Insert hook into a stitch between the two ears as shown. Fold a piece of the cut yarn in half, place this yarn on the hook, and pull only half of the yarn through. Tie the two pieces into a firm knot 2 times. Repeat this for a total of 8 stitches across one row!
Trim as needed for zebra and donkey, but keep longer for horse, shaping it around the face.

Neck Hair:
Use dark brown for horse. Use dark grey for donkey. Use black for zebra.
For the donkey and zebra, continue to cut 4″ pieces of yarn and attach them to the back of the head/neck area for 8 stitches across per row. For the horse, attach long hairs to the back of the head/neck area for a fuller mane effect.

Horse Tail:
In Dark Brown.
Cut many pieces of 12″ yarn. Place hook into the upper back of the toy horse, yarn over, and pull through half of the yarn. Tie the ends of yarn into a firm knot twice. Repeat this in nearby stitches to make a thick tail!
