Amigurumi Fox free crochet pattern

The Amigurumi fox pattern takes a little bit more skill, but can still be completed well within the limits of the beginner.

Please check the disclaimer
about the use of this pattern

Thank you! For this pattern you will need:

Light red yarn 4 mm
black yarn 4 mm
white red yarn 4 mm
Two Plastic safety eyes
plastic safety nose
red thread
Fiberfill stuffing
White felt

Hook size:
For this pattern I am using a 4 mm hook but you can use a smaller or bigger. The bigger the hook the less tight the stitches and the bigger your amigurumi. If you use the hook I am recommending in this pattern and tour fabric still looks loose (you can see the stuffing) you should use a smaller hook.
