Little Tiger Amigurumi Crochet Pattern

This adorable little tiger is crocheted using the amigurumi technique, based on a free pattern by Ekaterina Krikun. The tiger is made with a 2.5 mm crochet hook and the yarns Alize Cotton Gold and YarnArt Jeans. All parts of the tiger are crocheted separately. The legs are movable, thanks to a thread-based attachment technique. You will also learn how to crochet the collar for the toy. The finished tiger stands at approximately 12 cm tall.
