I’ve always been a Winnie the Pooh fan, even growing up with a Hundred Acre Woods-themed bedroom. Over the past couple of weeks, I have been enjoying crocheting Pooh & his pals. So far I have made Pooh, Eeyore & now Piglet! My Pooh pattern comes with a tutorial on youtube, let me know if you would like to see one for Eeyore & Piglet as well. These patterns are beginner-friendly and the plushes make great gifts for little ones (just remember not to use safety eyes if you give crochet toys to small children).
For this pattern, I used Premier Parfait Chunky yarn (my favorite yarn) for a soft pastel look. Click here to get Premier yarn for this project. If you enjoy this pattern, please give me a follow on social media and let me know what other free patterns you would love to see! Happy crocheting 🙂
MATERIALS & TOOLS
- Yarn: Premier Parfait Chunky (Size 6) in light pink & dark pink (ballet & pink lemonade)
- Crochet hook (Size 6.0 mm)
- Polyfil – fiberfill stuffing
- 9mm safety eyes
- Black medium yarn for the eyebrows
- Yarn Needle
- Scissors
- Stitch marker
- Sewing pins
ABBREVIATIONS
- CH – chain
- SC – single crochet
- INC – single crochet increase (2 SC in each stitch)
- DEC – decrease (I use the invisible decrease in all of my creations for a cleaner look)
- FO – fasten off
- Magic ring – Make a loop, leaving a long tail to work with. Insert the hook in the center of the loop, yarn over, and draw up a loop. Yarn over, and pull through to make the first chain (this does not count as a stitch). Continue to crochet over the loop and tail with the number of stitches called for. There are many wonderful YouTube videos on how to make a magic circle if you are a visual learner! Always move your stitch marker to the last stitch in the round.
THIS PATTERN IS WORKED IN CONTINUOUS ROUNDS.
