A revised version of this pattern can be found here! Cows are one of my daughter’s favorite animals, they have officially decided that they will be farmers when they grow up! While we don’t have room in our back yard for a real one I knew they would enjoy a plushie friend in the meantime. These cows are slightly larger than most of my patterns but still work up fairly quickly at 13 inches tall. The legs and body are made as one piece with the head sewn on separately. The neck has a nice proportion to keep it sturdy for hours of play. And those spots! They may just be my favorite details along with those cute snouts! Since writing this pattern I have added a duck pattern to join them on the farm. Also added are a mini cow pattern (so you can make your own family) and a mini pig pattern! I have loved seeing all of your cows in the Grace and Yarn Crochet Group on Facebook, all the different colors and variations are so cute! I’d love to know what other farm animals you would like to see? Feel free to leave a comment in the group or message below! This post contains affiliate links, please click here for more info.

If you’re new to amigurumi be sure to check out the Tips to Learning Amigurumi page! It’s packed full of mini tutorials and helpful photos to cover all the basics! For this pattern I used plastic safety eyes, if you don’t have these on hand or prefer crocheted eyes I recommend this alternative here! Materials Size 4 worsted weight yarn (150g of white yarn; small amounts of brown or black, pink for the nose, and beige for the horns) 3.5mm crochet hook 15mm safety eyes Black crochet/embroidery thread for the eyelashes (optional) Scissors Tapestry needle (I love the bent tips!) Stuffing Stitch markers (a piece of scrap yarn works great!) Abbreviations (US Terminology) MC – Magic circle SC – Single crochet SC INC – Single crochet increase INV DEC – Invisible decrease DC – Double crochet St(s) – Stitch(es) *Slowly stuff as you go, you want it to be firm but not stretched.

When you reach the chain make a SC across each of the 3 chains, SC in the remaining stitches of the next leg and SC across each of the 3 chains (you will have SC on both sides of the 3 chains now) (54) (Here’s an e
xample of a leg join from Katie the Koala pattern) This completes your join and is where your next round will start.

My daughters love themed animals and are a big inspiration to my patterns. After making my amigurumi cow, I knew I wanted to create a farm theme. The next installment is here, these sweet little ducks! (Funny enough, when I started designing them they were chicks. After frogging and trying to get the details to match what I pictured in my head, they started to look more and more like ducks. My awesome pattern testers helped me pinpoint which animal they should be!) If you are new to amigurumi be sure to check out my tips and materials page to help get you started! By including or excluding the bow and eyelashes this pattern is easily adaptable to make in a boy or girl version! Equally fun is deciding the colors to make them in. Both work up to be about 13 inches tall, perfect cuddling size! If you have any questions along the way or want to share your project with us, join the Grace and Yarn Crochet Group on Facebook! I’ll also keep you updated on new patterns, giveaways and tutorials! In most of my patterns I use plastic safety eyes, they are easy and fast to install. However, they are not recommended for children under 3. If you are making this for a little one or don’t have the size needed on hand, I recommend using my crochet thread eyes as an alternative! You may make and sell items made from this pattern but please do not sell, share or reproduce the actual pattern. If you sell finished items online (Etsy, etc) please provide a link to the pattern and credit to me as the designer, thank you. I hope you enjoy this pattern! This is a free pattern here on my blog, if you would prefer an ad-free printable version you can purchase one for a small fee from Ravelry or Etsy. Don’t forget to PIN this pattern and save to your favorite board! This post contains affiliate links, please click here for more info. Thank you for supporting Grace and Yarn!

Happy Friday friends! Earlier in the week I shared a re-release with you for our larger amigurumi cow pattern and today I’m super excited to share a revamped version of our mini cows! If you enjoyed our Mini Zebra CAL a while back you might recognize this cute and chunky mini shape. They were perfect for modifying into our sweet farm friends! The legs, body and head are made as one piece saving you t
ime on sewing. And those spots? The perfect little accent. To make these farm friends I used Lion Brand Feels Like Butta in White and Lion Brand Jeans yarn in Khaki and Stovepipe. They were the perfect combo to piece together for a little touch of squish and softness. If you’re new to amigurumi I have a few tutorials I’ll link for you down below. This is a great beginner friendly project to jump in and get your feet wet! Check out these tips below to get started!
