Amigurumi Cute Mermaid Free Crochet Patterns
Hello dear visitors, I am here again with new amigurumi molds for you. I am sharing amigurumi patterns for you here for free. You can make your children happy by making these patterns. Amigurumi toys are very popular lately and are the most beautiful toys that don’t harm your kids. Your kids will love them. Let’s move on to our pattern and give them this gift.
You will need
Yarn (cotton, acrylic, wool…) in colour: A (for skin tone); B (white) for the tail and the bra; C (green, aqua, white…) for the hair… or the colours you prefer.
Crochet hook in accordance with the yarn you’ll use. I usually prefer to use a smaller thickness crochet than indicated by the thread label.
Stitch marker.
Fiberfill for stuffing.
Some beads to decorate (optional).
Yarn needle.
Safety eyes (10 mm).

Note
In this pattern, I’ve worked in spiral (continuous rounds).
Head, body, tail and fins are one piece. The arms and the bra are woven apart and sewn afterwards.
The thread, wool, acrylic, cotton yarn … is at your choice, adapting the hook to the thickness and to your way to weave (looser or tighter). Remember that with another thread and hook, mermaid’s final size will change .
The number in brackets at the end of each line means the number of stitches you should have, for example (6).

The Bra
In colour B. We are going to work the both sides of the foundation chain.
Start working 17 chains.
Rnd 1: Start in second chain from the hook: sl st in next 2 st(s), sc, chain one, hdc, chain, dc, hdc, sc, sl st in the next two st(s), sc, chain one, hdc, chain, dc, hdc, sc, sl st in the next two st(s), chain.
Continue on the other side of the foundation chain making the same what appear between **.
Fasten off and sew the bra to the body.
Hair
I give hair to my amigurumi dollies as you would if putting tassels in a scarf: I cut a piece of yarn which is double the length that I want the hair to be, I fold it in half and put the loopy end through a stitch in the top of the head, starting in the front of the head, where I want the part to be. I then put the end pieces through the loop and pull so they are right next to the head. Repeat to form a vertical line right in the middle of the head (or where you want the part to be).
Once I’m done with one side of the part I do the other side, making sure to put the second row of hair right next to the first one.After I’m done with the middle part, I move one of the middle parts all the way to the other side. I then do the same thing over and over so the whole head is covered by hair!
