Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why don’t you specify a brand of yarn?
A: There are several reasons Firstly because
amigurumi does not need a specific brand of
yarn to achieve a good result; secondly, This
project has not been sponsored by a yarn
company, if you would like to know specific
details of the yarn and other items used for
this project, see the back of the book The
final reason is this: all crafters are
artisans; you are creatively free to choose
your favorite brand, fiber content and weight
of yarn to achieve YOUR desired effect I
would love to see your projects!
I encourage you to share images of your
finished projects on Ravelry and my Facebook
page www.facebook.com/thecrochetcase
www.facebook.com/MerakiCraftInc
Pattern support is always available on the
Facebook page Just send me a message
Q: That hook is too small for my yarn! Can I use a different hook size?
A: Of course! If your tension is particularly tight, or you are using a heavier weight yarn,
a larger hook size may be needed Use what you feel is appropriate to achieve the best results for YOU
Q: My stuffing is showing through the crochet fabric! How can I prevent that from happening?
A: To prevent the polyfill from showing through your work, use a slightly smaller hook than is necessary for the yarn you have selected Also, do NOT overstuff your amigurumi pieces For best results, fill FIRMLY, but not so much that you overstretch the crochet fabric

Instructions
Important!
This project is worked in a continuous spiral
without joining at the end of each round To
mark the end of each round, use a piece of
contrasting colored yarn or a stitch marker
If you leave your yarn marker in, moving the
tail forward and back for each subsequent row,
take care not to crochet through the yarn It
can be easily removed when your item is
complete by simply pulling it out
To make filling your amigurumi easier, stuff
as you go Start stuffing with polyfill when
your item is a few inches in length
Some manipulation of stuffing may be needed to
ensure the correct shape is achieved

Legs
Each leg is made individually, each utilizing
18 skipped stitches from the previous section
Start each leg by attaching your main color
yarn with a slipstitch into the skipped stitch
closest to the belly section
There will be 4 small holes near the belly
that will need closing with a few whip
stitches Leave at least one yarn tail 8
inches in length at the beginning of any leg
to complete this step Do NOT stuff legs until
all four are made
1 Attach yarn with slst in first skipped
st of previous section, sc into same
st, sc into next 17 st’s (18)

35 [inc into next st, sc into next 10
st’s] 3 times, change to hooves and horn color on the last stitch (36)
36-40.Sc into each st around (36), fasten off,
leaving an 8” yarn tail for sewing After all four legs are made, its time to stuff legs firmly – this helps Flick to stand alone, then create the soles of the feet

Soles
Make 4
1 Starting with hooves and horn color and
a magic ring, 6sc into ring (6)
2 inc into each st around (12)

(36)
Fasten off and weave in ends Using the yarn
tail from one leg, sew soles to legs with
whipstitch, adding a little more stuffing
before the soles are closed if necessary
Repeat this step on all legs
Tail
Cut 3 x pieces of hooves and horn color yarn, approximately 10cm/4” long and set aside
In main color, work an icord (tutorial here:
5cm/2”, when your tail is long enough, keep all 3 loops on your hook
Take your 3x yarn pieces, fold in half, pull yarn pieces through all 3 loops on your hook until you have a triple stranded loop large enough to loop over the ends (tutorial here
braid) Use a pet brush or comb to fluff the tail
Sew the tail onto the back side of the body, approximately 3 rows above the start of the legs

Eyelids
Make 2
Cut a small hole in the center of the white
felt circle (for safety eyes)
Gather together your felt semicircles, your
white felt 1 & ¼ “ circles, and embroidery
threads Using 2 strands of thread matching
the chin color, whip stitch an eyelash and a
felt semicircle (flat side) together, being
careful to stitch BETWEEN each of the
eyelashes, and over the felt
Line up the white felt circle under the eyelid
(with lashes) and blanket stitch through both
pieces of felt (top section ONLY!) Change to
your contrasting thread and blanket stitch
over the bottom half of the eyelid, being
careful to place your stitches as evenly as
possible
Head
Now, the head is worked from the chin up, still working in a continuous spiral Stuff with polyfil as you go

chain from your hook and in each of the next 9 ch, 3sc into last ch Now working on the opposite side of the chain, sc into next 10 ch, 3sc into last (26)

Horns
We are going to start the horns now Do not be
confused by the first row asking you to work 3
st’s before skipping stitches for the second
horn – this is done because of the way spiral
amigurumi twists, and we need the horns to be
side by side on top of the head rather than
lopsided towards the back Move your stitch
marker accordingly
First horn:
1 sc into next 3 st’s, skip 12 st’s, sc
into last 9 st’s (12)
2-5 sc into each st around (ignoring
skipped stitches – they are reserved
for the second horn) change to hooves
and horn color on last st of row 5
(12)
6 [inc into next st, sc into next st] 6
times (18)
7-8 sc into each st around (18)
9 [dec, sc into next st] 6 times (12)
10 [dec] 6 times (6) fasten off, stitch
hole closed with whip stitch, pulling each stitch firmly as you go
Second horn:
1 Attach main color with slst to first
skipped st in row 1 of first horn, sc into same st and in each of the next 11 st’s (12)
2-5 sc into each st around (12)
6 [inc into next st, sc into next st] 6
times (18)
7-8 sc into each st around (18)
9 [dec, sc into next st] 6 times (12)
10 [dec] 6 times (6) fasten off, stitch
hole closed with whip stitch, pulling each stitch firmly as you go

fill ears

magic ring, 6 sc into ring (6)

times (9)
3 sc into each st around (9)

10 inc into next st, sc into next 20 st’s,
inc into last st (24)
11 [dec, sc into next 2 st’s] six times
(18)
12-13 sc into each st around (18), fasten
off, leaving an 8 inch yarn tail for sewing to head – DO NOT stuff
Fold ear lengthways so that your row/stitch markers are the to folded edge of each ear When placing ears, markers should face to the ceiling Ears are placed so the top of the ear (where marker is closest to head) is approximately 2 rows below the start of the horn section and slightly towards the back of the head

Assembly
There is not much assembly left now All you
need to do is attach the head to the neck and
add your spots! Place the neck on the opposite
side of - and in line with - the eyes Use the
exposed loops on the neck as a stitch guide,
whip stitch around the exposed loops, catching
a few stitches on the back of the head as you
go
Randomly place your felt spots on Flick’s
body, neck and legs and pin in place
When you are happy with your spot placement, sew the spots onto your giraffe using blanket stitch, ensuring you catch your crochet fabric and the felt with your needle and thread at the same time
For the nose, embroider two x’s over the color change line, directly below the eyes and slightly towards the center of the face
Congratulations on your new arrival!
