Hey everyone! Happy Holidays! It’s been a really long while since I’ve designed a pattern, and this November, the opportunity to do so presented itself to me. This simple Fox Amigurumi Pattern is sure to please anyone who wants a cute fox
So if you know me, you know that I’m a huge fan of Foxes. I even have a beginner friendly Foxes In Snow beanie pattern I designed awhile back!
Well as chance should have it, a friend of mine asked me to crochet a fox plushie for one of her kiddos. We couldn’t settle on a pattern, and so the Friendly Fox Amigurumi Pattern was born!
I had so much fun designing this pattern, and I hope that you have just as much fun making it
If you do decide to make it, please tag me on Instagram so that I can see your awesome fox doll! @freshofftheneedles
I have also decided to go with a more minimalist style for my Ad free, Large Print, Printable PDF patterns. I believe this format will aide in accessibility as well as usability.
My Ad Free, Large Print PDF Patterns are available below for $3. Your contribution greatly helps in my ability to keep this site running!
