Knitting and crocheting is a new found hobby and amigurumi patterns have quickly become my favorite thing to crochet! While I have no intention of teaching you how to crochet (because I am still fairly new to this), I am always being asked by friends where I find the precious animal patterns that I use so I am doing a round up post of my favorite Etsy shops to buy patterns from.
This post contains affiliate links which means that if you make a purchase using one I could receive a commission. This is at no cost to you. See our full disclosure policy here.
If you’re interested in learning to crochet I highly recommend checking out Craftsy for their huge collection of online classes!
Obviously, you can find patterns other places but I believe in supporting small businesses so I tend to only buy patterns from Etsy sellers. Check out my Amigurumi board on Pinterest for even more patterns!
Before you spend a ton of time and money on supplies let me share my secrets!
6060 is my go to store for eyes. They have so many affordable options in different sizes and colors.
I usually buy my yarn at Michael’s or Hobby Lobby with Ebates (if you haven’t set up an Ebates account do it now…I get so much cash back from using this for my online shopping)!
