Amigurumi Pig Crochet Pattern

The pig is more similar to humans than many people think, and not only in appearance.

Not only does the common domestic pig have a similar tissue structure as humans, but it is also very similar to humans in physical terms.

Therefore, if you are looking for someone who understands you, doesn’t interrupt and listens to you, this little crocheted piggy is the perfect partner!

This crochet pig is exclusively crocheted with chain stitches and single crochet stitches in spiral rounds and rows with increases and decreases and is therefore perfect for beginners.

The depicted amigurumi pig has been crocheted with the “Schachenmayr Catania” yarn with a 2.5 mm crochet hook and has sitting a height of 5 cm.

Assembling

Legs: After you’ve finished crocheting all pieces, start sewing the legs onto the body. Start sewing the first leg onto the body directly over the edge that was created by the round that was crocheted only into the back loop. Sew on the second leg 4 to 5 stitches left or right from the first leg, again just over the edge.

Arms: Sew the arms left and right onto the body, 1 stitch row under the “neck”. Do not sew the arms directly over the legs but slightly behind the legs.

Eyes: Attach the safety eyes after the 7th stitch row counting from the top center of the head. The eyes are 4 stitches apart from each other. Back to the crochet pattern.

Muzzle: Sew the muzzle onto the head centered below the eyes.

Ears: Sew the ears left and right 2 to 3 stitch rows from the middle of the head onto the head.

Squeeze the ears together as shown in the picture to give the ears a small arch.

Tail: Sew the tail onto the middle of the back of the body, just above the stitch edge.

Nostrils and Eyebrows: For the nostrils, pull a Black thread left and right through one stitch on the Dhalia-colored area and one stitch directly below. Hide the remaining threads in the muzzle or head.

For the eyebrows do the same, but take a Dhalia-colored thread and pull it diagonally through 2 stitches over each eye, skipping one stitch inbetween.
