Hermosos amigurumis, gracias por compartirlos
Thank you for sharing your marvellous pattern. As I crochet to raise funds for research into FTD Fronto Temporal Dementia or Picks Disease as it is sometimes called, I really appreciate finding free patterns. I promise I will give you a mention when I sell any items.
I have just one question. In round 3 of the button I feel it should read. R 3: (1 sc, inc)*6 (18) not R 3: (2 sc, inc)*6 (18).
Kind regards, Stay safe

Love this Olaf. I do not understand row 15 of the head. Please explain. You go from 42sc in row 14 to 64 count in row 15
Michele because you inc.in 14 so it add a lot of stickers.

Thanks for your pattern.
Could you please explain row 15 of the head.
Row 8-14 is all 42 stitches.
Row 15 ends up 64 stitches, what do you mean by 8 inc in this row???
Thanks
April, crochet so: R 14: 42 sc
R 15: 7 sc, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, (1 sc, inc)*6, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, inc, 7 sc (64)
8 inc – repeat increase 8 times
8 Inc means do 8 increases one after r the other . 🙂
Hi there is no pattern for upper body ?
Two parts of the body are ctocheted as one piece.
A really super pattern, thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for this pattern , I am making it now and it looks good so far . 😊
Had a lot of fun creating this. The pattern is well-written and super easy to follow, which I totally appreciate! Thank you so much, my granddaughter will be so happy! 🥰
Gracias un patrón muy fácil de entender, solo una duda como se cose la cabeza al cuerpo.
Estupendo!!! Me encantó, gracias por compartir tu patrón, me quedo hermoso 🥰
Bellissimo spiegazione perfetta graziee
Awesome pattern but you should have had instructions for the assembly. Where in the pattern do you put the feet and arms, and where would you put the eyes, nose and mouth on the face? Even with the pictures we all would still be wild guessing of where they should go.
