Amigurumi Knitted Bull “Frunya”
This is a step-by-step guide for crocheting a small amigurumi bull named Frunya, created by Ida Moiseeva. The bull is 12 cm tall when using Nako Paris yarn with a 2.0 mm crochet hook. If you choose plush yarn, the size will increase to approximately 27 cm. This description also works for creating a cow amigurumi, and you can decorate it with a floral wreath or other embellishments.
