Free Wolf Amigurumi Pattern

This free wolf amigurumi pattern is a great project for intermediate and seasoned crocheters! If you’re not quite ready for color changes yet, you can make it in one color only. It comes with a video tutorial on my YouTube channel, in case you need visual guidance.

If using the recommended yarn and hook size, your amigurumi will measure about 7 x 7cm / 2.8 x 2.8″.
