Fox
Welcome!
I am super excited to show you my second favorite amigurumi I’ve ever crocheted. My favorite amigurumi’s blog post will be coming next week so stay tuned. Making this fox was so much fun, it was really easy to make. The pattern for this amigurumi is by @foxy.crochet.
My Insights
When I was making this fox’s head if you look closely at the photos you can see on the sides that the fox’s head is pointy. While the head was being made, I didn’t like how it was turning out. I later learned that I have to wait until the amigurumi is finished in order to judge it. This amigurumi has a lot of parts that need to be sewn on. Using pins was a lifesaver for me. The reason I used pins is so I could pin the ears to the head so I could see how it would turn out and then I sewed the pieces on. I did the same for the headband, tail, nose, and etc. In two weeks, there will be a blog post about how to use pins so stay tuned.
