Introduction: Amigurumi – Minimee Crochet Snow Owl “Dina”

To successfully crochet the Amigurumi Snowy Owl, it is essential to prepare in advance. Hence, you will find detailed information about the required prerequisites, materials, and size here. Additionally, you can find help through the respective additional links.

Attention! Amigurumis are very cute and, therefore, not only popular among adults. Children often see them as toys, so you should be especially careful. Amigurumis that are not intended for play should be kept out of the reach of children. If an Amigurumi is meant to be played with by children, you should strictly adhere to the guidelines for toys. If you plan to give away or sell Amigurumis (license for sellers), you must strictly adhere to the legal requirements for toys and display the required CE marking.

Prerequisites

To easily implement this crochet pattern for the Amigurumi Snowy Owl, you should already be familiar with the following crochet techniques. Here you will also find detailed tutorials to learn the individual techniques.

  • Chain Stitches
  • Decreases
  • Double Crochet Stitches (UK!)
  • Half Treble Crochet Stitches (UK!)
  • Increases
  • Loops of a Stitch
  • Magic Ring
  • Slip Stitches
  • Spiral Rounds
  • Treble Crochet Stitches (UK!)
  • Turning Chain Stitches

Note! By offsetting regular increases and decreases, they become almost invisible. You can recognize regular increases by the phrase “double every … stitch,” and regular decreases by the phrase “crochet together every … and … stitch”. The stitch chart for spheres and circles might also be helpful for you.

Note! Using a special technique for invisible decreases makes them nearly invisible. Although this technique requires a bit of practice, it’s worth giving it a try.

Supplies

The Amigurumi Snowy Owl was crocheted with the following materials. In general, the Amigurumi Snowy Owl can be crocheted with any yarn and a matching crochet hook. To achieve a comparable result, I recommend using materials that are as similar as possible. In addition to the materials, all necessary tools and supplies are also listed here.

Crochet Hook

You will need a crochet hook with a size of 12 (british). For converting to other sizes, the crochet hook size converter will help you. I have selected some great crochet hooks for you here.

Darning Yarn

I have used darning yarn in the shade of black here. If you cannot find a suitable darning yarn in your supplies, I have already selected some for you.

Filling

For filling, I used wadding made of 100% viscose. However, there are numerous alternatives for filling material. If you’ve run out of filling, I’ve prepared a refill for you here.

Paint

I used acrylic paint in the shade of grey here. This paint is non-toxic, water-dilutable, waterproof, and adheres to almost any surface. I found a great set of acrylic paints for you to try out here.

Pins

You’ll also need a few pins. The more colorful your collection, the better. If you need more, I’ve found something for you.

Safety Eyes

I used 2 safety eyes with a diameter of 1/4 inches. The eyes are completely black. However, there are countless alternatives for amigurumi eyes. You might prefer other safety eyes as well.

Scissors – any

You’ll need any scissors. It’s best to use your most beautiful scissors because it brings you joy. If you don’t have really nice scissors, I’ve picked out some lovely ones for you.

Wool Needle

You’ll need a wool needle with a blunt tip. The thickness of the wool needle should match the thickness of your yarn. You might like the set of wool needles I’ve picked out for you.

Yarn – Schachenmayr – Catania – 106 – weiß

I used yarn in the shade White. The material is 100% cotton. The yardage is 137 yds / 1.75 oz. If you want to replenish your supply, I’ve already picked out the matching yarn for you here.

Yarn – Schachenmayr – Catania – 401 – aprikose (hellorange)

I used yarn in the shade Apricot. The material is 100% cotton. The yardage is 137 yds / 1.75 oz. If you want to replenish your supply, I’ve already picked out the matching yarn for you here.

Note! I have used safety eyes here. If you have never attached safety eyes before, you can also find detailed instructions on how to attach safety eyes here. In addition to a wide selection of other safety eyes, there are also numerous alternatives for amigurumi eyes. Simply use the eyes that you like best.

Note! The specified yarn was used for the example shown here. In principle, you can use any yarn and an appropriate needle size. However, the quality of the material also affects the quality of the result, so you should avoid cutting corners in the wrong place. Also, the thickness of the yarn and the needle will influence the size of the outcome, which you can, of course, intentionally take advantage of.

Size

Here are the size specifications for the crocheted Amigurumi Snowy Owl. The height was measured standing without ears. Please note that the actual size depends on the yarn used, the size of the crochet hook, and individual crochet tension.

Needle SizeYardageSize
Crochet Hook 12137 yds / 1.75 oz2 2/5 inch
Crochet Hook 11120 yds / 1.75 oz3 inches
Crochet Hook 9 or 1093 yds / 1.75 oz?

Note! If you want to change the size, you can simply use a thicker or thinner yarn with a suitable needle size. Simply doubling the rounds, rows, and stitches, on the other hand, will only result in an uneven outcome.

To crochet our Snowy Owl, we first crochet the eye masks, followed by the head and body in one piece. Then we crochet wings, legs, and a beak. Finally, all parts are assembled, giving the Snowy Owl its own unique character.

Crochet Eye Masks for Snowy Owl (2x)

Amigurumi - Minimee Crochet Snow Owl - Dina - pattern

Before we can crochet the head for the Snowy Owl, we need the two eye masks since they will be attached with safety eyes.

Tip: Wenn du ein besonders schönes Ergebnis erhalten möchtest, kannst du die regelmäßigen Zunahmen durch Versetzen ein wenig verstecken. Dazu verwendest du einfach die Maschentabelle für Kugeln und Kreise.

(Redaktion: Block ersetzen)

Note! If you want to create several nearly identical parts, it’s advisable to work on them consecutively on the same day. For larger parts, it’s even recommended to work on them simultaneously in stages. Our tension and tightness can vary from day to day, leading to visible differences.

  • white:
  • 1st round:
    • magic ring
    • into the magic ring:
      • 6 double crochet stitches (UK!)
    • = 6 stitches

Now simply place the safety eye in the middle of the yarn ring. Make sure that the beautiful side of the eye is on the nice side of the stitches. Then you can pull the yarn ring together as usual. You just need to be a little more careful so that the safety eye doesn’t shift.

  • 2nd round:
    • double every stitch
    • = 12 stitches
  • beyond the end of the round:
    • 1x one slip stitch into one stitch
  • cut the thread generously, pull the loop, tuck the thread end to the center on the back

Crochet Head for Snowy Owl (1x)

Amigurumi - Minimee Crochet Snow Owl - Dina - crochet pattern

We start crocheting the Snowy Owl with the head and then continue immediately with the body. Therefore, do not cut the yarn but continue with the body as soon as you finish the head.

Note! If you want to achieve a particularly beautiful result, you can hide regular increases and decreases by offsetting them a little. You can recognize regular increases by the phrase “double every … stitch,” and regular decreases by the phrase “crochet together every … and … stitch”. The stitch chart for spheres and circles might also be helpful for you. Additionally, you can apply a special crochet technique here for invisible decreases.

  • white:
  • 1st round:
    • magic ring
    • into the magic ring:
      • 6 double crochet stitches (UK!)
    • = 6 stitches
  • 2nd round:
    • double every stitch
    • = 12 stitches
  • 3rd round:
    • double every 2nd stitch
    • = 18 stitches
  • 4th round:
    • double every 3rd stitch
    • = 24 stitches
  • 5th round:
    • double every 4th stitch
    • = 30 stitches
  • 6th – 12th round:
    • (= 7 rounds)
    • every stitch one stitch
    • = 30 stitches
  • 13th round:
    • into the back loop only:
      • crochet together every 4th and 5th stitch
    • = 24 stitches
  • attach safety eyes, position:
    • after the 9th round
    • 5 stitches distance

The safety eyes should now already be in the crocheted eye masks. That remains the same, and you now also insert each safety eye through the corresponding stitch on the head. The safety eye should now securely hold the eye mask on the head. Before closing, you need to rotate the eye masks in the right direction so that they look as symmetrical as possible. When attaching the fasteners, make sure that the masks are pressed well against the head and do not slip. Once you’re done, you can continue.

Note! If you want to achieve a particularly beautiful result, you can hide regular decreases by offsetting them a little. You can recognize regular decreases by the phrase “crochet together every … and … stitch”. The stitch chart for spheres and circles might also be helpful for you. Additionally, you can apply a special crochet technique here for invisible decreases.

  • 14th round:
    • crochet together every 3rd and 4th stitch
    • = 18 stitches
  • 15th round:
    • crochet together every 2nd and 3rd stitch
    • = 12 stitches
  • fill and stuff completely
  • do NOT cut yarn, continue with:
    • body

Crochet Body for Snowy Owl (1x)

As described earlier, we now crochet the body directly onto the head. If you accidentally cut the thread, you can simply continue as if you were starting with a new color.

Note! If you want to achieve a particularly beautiful result, you can hide regular increases and decreases by offsetting them a little. You can recognize regular increases by the phrase “double every … stitch,” and regular decreases by the phrase “crochet together every … and … stitch”. The stitch chart for spheres and circles might also be helpful for you. Additionally, you can apply a special crochet technique here for invisible decreases.

  • white:
  • 16th round:
    • double every 4th stitch
    • = 15 stitches
  • 17th round:
    • double every 5th stitch
    • = 18 stitches
  • 18th round:
    • double every 6th stitch
    • = 21 stitches
  • 19th round:
    • double every 7th stitch
    • = 24 stitches
  • 20th – 23rd round:
    • (= 4 rounds)
    • every stitch one stitch
    • = 24 stitches
  • 24th round:
    • into the back loop only:
      • crochet together every 3rd and 4th stitch
    • = 18 stitches

Note! If you want to create several nearly identical parts, it’s advisable to work on them consecutively on the same day. For larger parts, it’s even recommended to work on them simultaneously in stages. Our tension and tightness can vary from day to day, leading to visible differences.

Complete Minimee Snowy Owl

Now you’ve already crocheted all the parts and can first carefully fix them with pins. This way, you can admire your crocheted Snowy Owl and check if everything is in the right place.

Attach Wings and Legs

Amigurumi - Minimee Crochet Snow Owl - Dina - free crochet pattern

Now we attach the wings and legs to the body. The wings are attached after the 16th round with a distance of 4 stitches, and the legs after the 23rd round below the small stitch edge with only 3 stitches apart. Since the wings are so wide, you simply leave one stitch free between the two entry points when attaching.

It will help if you first find the center based on the eyes. Then you can attach wings and legs to the right and left of it. It is more important to maintain the same distance to the center than to hit the exact stitch distance. Perhaps the pattern for attaching small Amigurumi parts will be a good help.

Sew Beak to Head

Amigurumi - Minimee Crochet Snow Owl - Dina - pattern - free crochet pattern

Next, sew the beak to the head with the thread end all around. The beak sits exactly between the eyes on the small stitch edge.

Attach Ears

Now cut about 5cm long pieces of yarn, 6 in white and 6 in gray. Take 2 strands of white and 2 strands of gray together, knot them as a tuft on the right and left sides of the head and on the backside.

Amigurumi - Minimee Crochet Snow Owl - Dina - pattern - gratis crochet pattern

The ear tufts sit horizontally in a line parallel to the eyes around the 5th round, and the tail tuft is in the middle exactly above the stitch edge. Then cut the tufts short and pull the yarn with a needle to make them look fluffy.

Create Details

Finally, I attached eyelashes with black embroidery yarn and added a bit of glitter to the feather coat with textile paint.

Done!
