AMIGURUMI HIPPO CROCHET PATTERN Meet Hady, the pink Amigurumi Hippo, who is all fresh and chirpy as she makes her entry into the Craft Passion library. This Hippo Amigurumi Pattern is the second animal of Craft Passion’s latest Animal & Wildlife Amigurumi series after Leon, the Amigurumi Lion. Now Leon won’t be so lonely anymore. If you have tried Leon, MooMoo, or Aile, you will find many similarities between them, which will make this Amigurumi Hippo crochet pattern an easy one to do Hady the Amigurumi Hippo stuffed animal stands at about 11.5” and when sitting, is about 9” tall. Crocheted from DK lightweight acrylic yarn, I used a 2.5mm hook to make her in this ideal huggable size. She makes a really good huggable stuffed hippo toy, so making her for children as a gift is a great idea. This hippo amigurumi design is quite flexible too, a different type of yarn will give you a hippo soft toy in a slightly different size. You will end up making a bigger hippo crochet animal with a heavier yarn (e.g medium yarn with a 3.0mm hook) or a smaller hippo by using lighter baby yarn (with a 2.0mm hook). Crochet tension will also affect its size; my tension is quite snug so my amigurumi hippo may be slightly smaller than yours. Hady, the hippo amigurumi is adorable and what’s different is that she is actually wearing a bikini suit! Have you ever seen a hippo in a bikini? Oh my, that is such a cute sight! You can see how to crochet this adorable hippo toy here. Hady is just like all hippos – a perfect day means lying in the sun next to some water, so if it ever gets too warm, she can take a quick dip to cool off before lying back in the sun to warm up. Last weekend was no different. She woke up early to a beautiful day with blue skies and scattered with cotton-wool clouds. “Yippeee,” she squealed. “Today, I can pack up a picnic and laze in the sun. What a gorgeous day.” And so she dressed in her favorite lime green bikini and trotted happily out the door to the beach with her sun hat and straw tote. She hummed a happy song as she went along the short little path, occasionally stopping to smell the fresh sea breeze. “How lucky I am to live so near to the beach,” the crochet hippo amigurumi thought to herself. “A quick cool dip is only 10 minutes away.” Within minutes, she reached the welcoming sandy seaside. Joyfully she spread out her beach mat and sat down with her book. She was contentedly reading when a shadow fell across her book. Looking up, she saw Sill the Amigurumi Sloth smiling down at her. “May I join you?” Sill asked. “But of course!” Hady replied joyfully. “This will be even more fun now.” And that was how they both spent the rest of the beautiful, sunny weekend. A trip to the beach won’t be as much fun without all the cute beach amigurumi accessories.

I’d love to share with you all my enthusiasm for my first amigurumi with chenille yarn, the “Flower Power” Hippo! The PDF file with step-by-step photos and written instructions is completely free for you to enjoy. Last summer I used DMC Happy Chenille for the first time and it won me over! I must admit I’m a huge fan of DMC yarns – all my Globetrotters and many more projects are made with DMC Natura and Happy Cotton. Could I not try their new chenille yarn? Happy Chenille is a super soft 100% polyester chenille yarn (this means it’s vegan!). The thickness of this yarn makes the crochet work smooth and quick too, plus there is no need to work tight to get that stiff work suitable for amigurumi. I chose this yarn to make the “Flower Power” Hippos because it is perfect for simple patterns which give immediate gratification. The chenille texture makes these funny crochet animals even more adorable! This yarn has a good stitch definition, so it is also recommended for those who have recently learned to crochet! The irresistible temptation to try all of Happy Chenille’s colors and combine them together has led to this family of crochet hippos. After making the first it was impossible to stop! Here are the Flower Power Hippos, presented one by one: “Peace” hippo: with a gray body (012 Hefalump x2 balls of yarn) and a rainbow crochet sweater“Dance” hippo: with a lime-colored body (029 Fizzy x2 balls of yarn), a two-layer skirt and a flower behind the ear!“Sing” hippo: with a turquoise body (030 Surfs Up x2 balls of yarn) and red dungarees decorated with a daisy The PDF pattern includes the list of all DMC Happy Chenille colors used and step-by-step photos to make all 3 dresses that are worked separately without sewing them to the hippo. Try on different outfits and make your hippos a colorful wardrobe. Add flowers and details to them to make fun hippie hippos! Do we have any tips to work chenille in an easier way? Yes, of course! Tip 1: Chenille/velvet yarn has a different structure than classic wool or cotton yarns so it must be worked with care, but that doesn’t mean it’s difficult! At the beginning we just have to feel the thread and the movement of the crochet hook, making the first stitches slowly, without the haste of wanting to complete the project in the blink of an eye ;) Tip 2: Reading the diagram you will notice that I DO NOT use the magic ring to start the pieces. To close the magic ring you have to pull tight on the thread, this is more tricky with a chenille yarn and sometimes breaks the thread. This step may not be very easy with a chenille yarn but the chenille yarn behaves very well starting the work in the round with 2 chains. Try both techniques and use your favorite! Tip 3: Counting the stitches could cause headaches… but even in this case there is a solution: use a contrasting color tail of yarn so it stands out of the crochet fabric and you will always have the situation under control! (Click here for the photo tutorial) I hope these tips will make your first crochet experience with chenille easier and “Happy”! Easy Hippo Crochet Pattern Welcome to my easy hippo crochet pattern.

I've included instructions for the little Santa hat and the bow. You can also leave the hippo plain if you want one for everyday. I think they turned out so cute! Emerson loves the one with the Santa hat and couldn't wait until I was finished taking pictures of it so she could play.
