Design your own amigurumi, get the pattern written for you

Put a crochet animal together from ready-made parts, make it your size and colours in 3D, and read the round-by-round pattern: stitch counts, increases, decreases and where to sew every piece. No pattern maths, no 3D skills.

See it in a minute

Start from a bear, turn it, resize and recolour a part, move an arm, add a tail, and watch a round light up on the animal when you tap it in the pattern. Silent video with captions.

How it works

1

Start from an animal, or a body

Tap the bear, the bunny or the cat and it appears in 3D, ready to change. Or start from a plain body and add a head, ears, a snout, arms, legs and a tail from the tray. Pairs come mirrored.

2

Make it yours

Tap a part and set its size in centimetres with a slider, pick a yarn colour, or drag it over the body to move where it is sewn on. Turn the animal with a finger, pinch to zoom.

3

Read the pattern

The Pattern tab writes every part in US terms with the stitch count after each round, "make 2" for pairs, stuffing notes, and assembly notes that say which round each piece is sewn to. Copy it or print it.

Written the way crocheters expect

6, 12, 18, 24

Rounds step by multiples of six, with plain rounds for gentle curves: "(2 sc, inc) x6 (24)", not odd counts you have to reverse-engineer.

Sized in centimetres, counted in stitches

Choose thin, medium or thick yarn and the generator turns your sizes into the right number of rounds and stitches for that yarn.

What you see is what you crochet

The 3D preview is drawn from the same rounds as the text, one bump per stitch, so the picture and the instructions can never disagree.

Assembly included

"Sew the arms to the body at round 9, on opposite sides." Where you dragged a part is where the notes tell you to sew it.
