Happy Star Wars Day!
May the fourth (force) be with you! We have created a chibi Yoda from Star Wars amigurumi pattern to celebrate this day! If you have followed us long enough, you would have seen our crochet Yoda appeared countless times in my apartment, about a year ago. I’ve stuck it in a frame on the wall. Now the crochet pattern is finally ready!! Look below to see Yoda in the photo frame =)
This is an easy pattern provided that you have already attended our Tiny Rabbit Hole’s Beginner (Level 2) workshops or equivalent! If you have not, feel free to visit our Youtube to learn how to crochet a simple round ball.

Instructions
- Our amigurumi are mostly done in continuous rounds starting with a Magic Ring. You don’t need to end with a slip stitch. Do use a stitch marker to mark the last stitch of every round at all times.
- You may wish to download the Counter+ app to help you with your counting.
- Please crochet the stitches tightly to prevent the polyfiber stuffing from showing. However, do not crochet too tightly otherwise it’ll be difficult to continue.
- Be sure to push the washer down only the first screw of the safety eye to prevent bulging.
- Always stuff your amigurumi firmly till the point that it feels bouncy.
- Always leave a long tail for sewing.
- When felting, ensure that the needle is perpendicular to object.
