FREE AMIGURUMI PATTERN: Woodstock from Peanuts

PATRÓN EN ESPAÑOL

SCHEMA IN ITALIANO

Hello again!

It’s been months now since I published a premium pattern for Snoopy, and I have recently discovered that it’s marked as «Bestseller» on Etsy!

To celebrate I have decided to offer a free pattern of an amigurumi Woodstock, Snoopy’s best friend. It’s small, just 10 cm, so it’s perfect as a keyring or a bag charm. It stands so you can display it wherever you want, too. It’s baby friendly but I recommend to use larger hook and yarn if you are planning to make a toy out of this pattern.

It doesn’t bear much difficulty but it has a lot of small parts: work with good light and a bit of patience!

If you prefer an inexpensive, ad-free and downloadable PDF version of this pattern, with all the pictures an explanations, purchase it HERE. Thanks!

Get everything ready? Let’s begin!

ASSEMBLY

Sew the body to the head roughly between rows 10-13 of the head.

Now sew the feathers to the head, aligned, starting at row 10 of the head and finishing right before the body.

Sew the big feather first, taking care of sewing the curved part pointing forward. Then sew the 3 medium feathers and the 2 small feathers.

Embroider the eyes and make the knot where the little feather will be placed, to hide it. Sew the last feather.

Sew one side of the legs to the feet (the one with the starting chain) and the opposite side to the bottom of the body. Woodstock should stand!

Sew the wings to boths sides of the body (the larger piece goes in the front) and sew the tail on Woodstock’s bottom.

Finished!

You can find Snoopy premium pattern on my Etsy shop Amigurinos. I’ve tried to make Snoopy and Woodstock proportionated, so if you make the two of them use the same hook and type of yarn for both, or a slighly bigger hook and yarn for Snoopy if you’d like Woodstock to be a bit smaller than mine in proportion.

Aren’t they the cutest together??
