Step-by-Step Instructions
Now, let’s get into the pattern. I will be dividing this crochet project into 3 sections:
- Legs
- Peanuts
- Putting It Together
1: Legs
First, make the legs. You will need to make 2 pieces.
1: MR, 6 SC, SL ST
2: CH, 6 V, SL ST
3 to 4: CH, 12 SC, SL ST
5: CH, 6 A, SL ST
6 to 8: CH, 6 SC, SL ST
Then, sew it closed and leave a long tail for sewing later.
2: Peanut
Next, move on to the body of the peanut.
1: MR, 6 SC, SL ST
2: CH, 6 V, SL ST
3: CH, 6 (SC, V), SL ST
4: CH, 6 (SC, V, SC), SL ST
5: CH, 6 (3 SC, V), SL ST
6: CH, 6 (2 SC, V, 2 SC), SL ST
7 to 14: CH, 36 SC, SL ST
15: CH, 6 (4 SC, A), SL ST
16: CH, 6 (3 SC, A), SL ST
17: CH, 24 SC, SL ST
18: CH, 6 (3 SC, V), SL ST
19 to 20: CH, 30 SC, SL ST
21: CH, 6 (4 SC, V), SL ST
22: CH, 36 SC, SL ST
23: CH, 6 (4 SC, A), SL ST
24: CH, 6 (3 SC, A), SL ST
25: CH, 8 (SC, A), SL ST
26: CH, 8 A, SL ST
27 to 29: CH, 8 SC, SL ST
As you work through the pattern, remember to add stuffing gradually.
Finally, sew it closed and hide the excess yarn neatly.
3: Putting It Together
Lastly, assemble your crochet peanut Jellycat-inspired plush.
First, sew the legs onto the peanut. I usually attach them at the side so the peanut can comfortably sit on the edge of a table. However, you can also sew them in the middle if you prefer a different look.
Next, sew the mouth and glue the safety eyes into place.
And there you have it, your very own jellycat-inspired peanut amigurumi!
