How to Crochet Amigurumi Donut – Free Pattern

by Doroteja

 

Unicorn Crochet Donuts

You will need:

  • 3 mm crochet hook
  • Yarn needle
  • Stitch markers
  • Yarn: DK weight, 50 g (1.75 oz).

 Gauge: 11 sts and 11 rows in sc measure 2 x 2 inch (5 x 5 cm).

Stitches:

  • ch – chain
  • ss – slip stitch
  • sc – single crochet
  • dc – double crochet
  • hdc – half double crochet
  • sc2tog – join next two sts with sc2tog
  • st/ sts – stitch/ stitches.

All of my patterns are written in standard American terms.

Important!

If the number is written in front of the stitch – 3 hdc = work 3 hdc into the same stitch.

If the number is written after the stitch – hdc 3 = work hdc into next 3 stitches.

You can decorate your donuts with beads, glue the yarn stripes on the icing or use the needle and some yarn and make stitches all over the icing as I did. Use your imagination and have fun!

Thank you for the pattern! My 19 month old is getting a pair of donut pjs for Christmas, and a couple of these adorable donuts will be so cute to go along with the pjs 🙂

Hello, I’m just got to making the icing for this cute little project and I’ve noticed in the written directions, you have forgotten to mention how many starting chains. I did work it out, but thought maybe a beginner might need to know for ease…thankyou so very much for sharing your patterns, we do all appreciate the work you put in to bring them to us…cheers from me in Australia❤❤

This pattern s cute enough that I like it a lot & wish to make it BUT, surely you don’t expect me to be on the computer the whole time I spend making it which could take days, which is why I’m asking why don’t you have the free pattern as a download? I’m not on my pc 24/7. Could you please let me know? Thanks. Didi

Hi Didi!
Thank you for your comment. I do this full time and I earn money from my blog ad revenue, which is very well needed to pay my bills and maintain my small business. For all creative bunnies out there that would like to download the pattern and print it out… there are a more than 80 beautifully designed patterns available in my Etsy, Ravelry and Love Crochet shop which are ad-free. And I am adding new crochet patterns on my blog and my stores every week. I work really hard, so I can continue doing what I love most and that is staying creative and share new content with you guys. But you have to understand that that the revenue earned by ad traffic to this site is what allows for free patterns to be written and published. Without people visiting this site to view the patterns, there will be no traffic which means, no more free patterns! And I would have to find a new job. I hope you understand. 🙂 Happy crocheting! 🙂

Hey love your patterns. Just wanted to say you didn’t tell how to see the doughnut together. I did find your YouTube video to help though.
Thanks

Does the donut get stuffed to make it full looking? I don’t see stuffing listed?

Yes. There is a polyester filling inside. 😊
