In this tutorial, you can learn to crochet Piglet from Winnie the Pooh using amigurumi techniques. The recommended yarn for this project is a cotton yarn (50 g / 160 m). The author suggests using YarnArt Jeans yarn in three shades of pink. All the parts are sewn on, and the eyes can be either securely attached or sewn. For the muzzle, you will need black thread (either thin yarn or embroidery floss).

The finished toy measures approximately 15-17 cm.
