Archie Inchworm Amigurumi Toy Knitting Pattern
Meet Archie the Inchworm, a delightful knitting pattern that encourages you to stop and admire the beauty of marigolds and nature around you! Life is too short to just measure marigolds, so why not take a moment to create a charming little friend? This adorable inchworm is not only cute but also serves as a fantastic project for knitters looking to refine their skills while enjoying the art of knitting.
This pattern features examples made with various worsted weight (8 or 10 ply) wool yarns, typically knitted using US size 3/3.25mm needles. However, you can use a different yarn and corresponding needle size to customize the finished piece according to your taste. When completed, Archie measures approximately 7 inches long and 7 inches tall (to the top of the arch). Keep in mind that the final size may vary based on your yarn choice and knitting style.
The body of Archie is designed to be worked in one seamless piece in the round, making it a unique and engaging project. The eyeballs and legs can either be knitted using picked-up stitches or created separately and sewn on for added versatility. This project utilizes several short rows to craft Archie's signature arch shape, making it the ideal opportunity for knitters looking to perfect their short row techniques and enhance their skills.
This pattern is best suited for intermediate to advanced knitters. It comes packed with helpful instructional photos and links that guide you through the process. Plus, if you find yourself needing additional support, the talented designer, cheezombie, is available to assist you via email whenever necessary.
