Amigurumi Deer

I’ve put a lot of time into making this amigurumi doll and I thought

it’s sad to put so much effort into something just to put it in the closet

after creating it.. So I got the idea to share my patterns so that other

people can enjoy my creations as much as I did and I hope this will be

an easy and fun way for you to make this by yourself

First of all I want to ask you NOT to (re)sell this pattern. It’s fully owned by YarnYard but you

are allowed to remake this amigurumi doll and sell the final product on your local craft fair,

bazaar, etc. You are NOT allowed to sell the pattern OR the final product on the internet.

Thank you!

Details

The details are made out of felt. For this you’ll need to cut out some figures with felt in the shapes

showed in the pictures and glue them on the project.

-2 circles in black felt for the eyes

-2 smaller circles in white felt to glue inside the eyes to imitate the light reflection

-2 oval shapes with pink felt used as blush on the cheeks

- A triangle-oval (with round corners) in black felt for the nose

- An oval in white felt to imitate the light reflection on the nose

-The picture below shows the shape of the feet details

-For the tail I used a combination of beige and light brown yarn.

Pulled the strings through a stitch in the back and made a knot to secure

I hope you liked this doll and it came out fine! Also If you have more questions, don't

hesitate to contact me at [email protected] and I’ll try to answer you as soon as I
