Pear Amigurumi

This free pattern is a part of my on-going The Very Hungry Caterpillar patterns. Of course, you can make this pear to go with anything, but if you are making the Caterpillar set, you will want to make two of these. They’re the perfect size for play food.

You will need:

• green yarn
• small amount of brown yarn
• poly-fil stuffing
• G hook
• yarn needle
• stitch marker

Note: This pattern is worked in continuous rounds, so you will want to use a stitch marker to keep track of where each row ends.

 

Abbreviations:

dec – single crochet two stitches together

inc – 2 single crochet in same stitch

sc – single crochet

sl st – slip stitch
