Amigurumi Llama Pattern

Long time no post!

I am currently on summer break, and now that I have more free time, I have been crocheting more. I came across a drawing of a cartoon llama and wanted to make it because it looked so fluffy and cute (also I had a random ball of fluffy yarn that I wanted to use up). So here is my pattern for this fluffy llama I made! :) (NOTE: The fluffy yarn that I used was size 6 in contrast to my cream yarn which was size 4. As a result, the head and body are much bigger because the fluffy yarn I used was much thicker and chunkier than the cream yarn I used to make the face, ears, and part of the legs.)

  • 3.75 mm crochet hook
  • Fluffy yarn(any color will work)
