About This Azumarill Amigurumi Pattern

This pattern creates a handmade Azumarill amigurumi with a rounded egg-shaped body, floppy ears with felt insets, flat feet, simple arms, and a long tail ending in a pom-pom. The body features a white 'wave' detail and felt spots for characterful decoration. Youll assemble and sew each piece with clear instructions so the final toy looks neat and sturdy.

Techniques include working in continuous rounds, front loop shaping for the wave detail, and simple decreases to shape limbs. Felt pieces and sewing create facial features and spots for an accurate, playful finish.

Why You'll Love This Azumarill Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it captures Azumarills playful look with a few simple techniques that produce a very polished toy. I enjoy the front-loop wave detail which adds adorable texture without complicated stitch work. The use of felt for eyes and spots makes finishing quick and effective, giving a crisp look that embroidery sometimes lacks. Sewing the tail pom-pom on is always a satisfying finishing touch that brings the whole piece together.

Switch Things Up

I love customizing this pattern by switching the yarn colors to create unique variations; try pastel blues for a softer look or bright teals for a bold toy.

I sometimes change the yarn weight and hook to make a mini keychain version or a larger cuddly toy; adjust stuffing and feature placement accordingly.

I like replacing felt eyes with safety eyes for a different finish, but felt works great for a soft, child-safe face.

Try embroidering the mouth instead of using felt for a subtler expression and easier washing.

For a whimsical twist, add a tiny crocheted bow or scarf around the neck for personality and seasonal variety.

I often vary the size and placement of the white spots to give each Azumarill its own character instead of making them identical.

Consider adding a small loop at the top of the head to turn your Azumarill into an ornament or hanging decoration.

If you want poseable limbs, insert thin wire inside the arms before flattening and closing for adjustable positioning.

I recommend experimenting with different felt colors for the ear insets—soft pinks, coral, or even metallic felt make interesting accents.

Dont be afraid to combine techniques: a fluffy yarn for the body with smooth yarn for details can create a textured, high-contrast finished piece that stands out.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping the front loop row for the wave detail will remove the textured edge; follow Rnd 12 exactly and work the next round into the free back loops to create the wave effect. ✗ Not stuffing gradually causes lumps and uneven shaping; stuff little by little throughout the body shaping rounds and adjust as you go to keep a smooth egg shape. ✗ Forgetting to fasten off and weave ends securely causes the toy to come apart after play; secure tails well, weave ends inside the work and knot where needed before trimming. ✗ Placing ears and facial features without pinning results in asymmetry; pin parts in place, check from several angles, then sew or glue carefully to ensure even placement.

WW yarn in blue, white and small amount of black (for tail). Fiberfill. Small bits of felt for eyes, mouth, ear insets and spots. G Hook. Tapestry/Yarn Needle. Sewing thread to match yarn and felt pieces.

— Notes :

Info :

Gauge isn't terribly important here, but your choice of hook and yarn should result in a tight stitch that won't allow the fill to show through. Numbers at the end of each round or row indicate the total number of stitches that should be in that round or row.

— Body :

Round 1 :

8 sc in magic ring (8)

Round 2 :

2 sc in each sc around (16)

Round 3 :

sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc around (24)

Round 5 :

sc in next 3 sc, 2 sc in next sc around (40)

Round 6-11 :

sc in each sc around (40)

Round 12 :

working in front loops only: sl st in next sc, hdc in next sc, dc in next sc, hdc in next sc, *sl st in each of next 2 sc, hdc in next sc, dc in next sc, hdc in next sc* repeat from * to * around to final stitch, sl st in last sc of round. F/O white. (the 'waves' you've created may want to curve back to the front for now, that's ok.) (40)

Round 13 :

If you look just behind the round you just worked, you'll notice a 'line' of free loops (the back loop that was not worked through). Attach your blue yarn to one of these loops and sc in the same loop. Sc in each remaining loop around (40)

Round 14-16 :

sc in each sc around (40)

Round 17 :

sc in each of next 6 sc, dec over next 2 sc around (35)

Info :

F/O. Add any more stuffing needed to finish the shaping of the body. It should be a nice 'egg' shape. Weave the tail through the final round and tug to close opening. Secure the yarn well and weave in end. Using white sewing thread and sewing needle, carefully sew the 'waves' that are in front up to the blue section so that they're even and create the 'wave' effect desired around.

Info :

F/O. Add any stuffing needed to finish the shape. Just before you tug up the opening, insert the other end of the tail, pull tails to close opening and using yarn needle, secure the opening and end of tail. Weave in the loose end.

— Final Assembly :

Info :

Feet are sew to bottom of body as shown in photos. Arms are sewn to the side of body just above the 'wave' of the white section.

Info :

Ears are sewn to top of head as shown. Face details are made by cutting out small ovals for eyes, and the mouth shape from felt and gluing or sewing them on. tiny white bits of felt for the catchlights in the eyes are easiest glued where possible a small dot of white fabric paint also works.

Info :

Cut various sized circles for the 'dots' across the body. I didn't do the circles around the back of mine, but you can if you like. I'm sure in 'pokemon nature' no two azumarill's dots are exactly the same.

Assembly Instructions

  • Sew feet to the bottom of the body, positioning them evenly and flattening each foot so the toy sits upright; secure with several passes for stability.
  • Attach arms to the sides of the body just above the white 'wave' section; angle them slightly forward and sew firmly through the arm base.
  • Sew ears to the top of the head, centering and spacing them to match the photo; glue or sew pink felt insets inside each ear before attaching.
  • Weave the tail through the final round of the body and tug to close the opening; secure and weave in ends inside the body to hide tails.
  • Attach the ball of the tail by inserting the free tail end into the ball before closing it, then sew the ball securely to the tail cord and body.

Important Notes

  • 💡Gauge is not critical, but use a hook and yarn combination that creates tight stitches so stuffing does not show through.
  • 💡Stuff gradually and shape as you go; overstuffing early will make shaping the egg body difficult.
  • 💡Pin parts in place before sewing to check symmetry and positioning of ears, eyes, arms and feet.
  • 💡Weave excess yarns into the doll interior using a crochet hook to hide tails neatly after assembly.
  • 💡Use small bits of felt and fabric glue or sewing thread for crisp facial details and secure them well for durability.

Can I use different yarn weights for this pattern?

Yes, you can change yarn weight but this will affect finished size and stitch tension; choose an appropriate hook and be prepared to adjust stuffing and placement of features.

Do I need prior crochet experience for this pattern?

This pattern is rated intermediate, so basic familiarity with working in rounds, decreases, front loop work, and sewing pieces together is recommended.

How do I hide the tail yarns inside the doll?

Weave the tail through the final round and use a crochet hook to pull excess yarns into the doll interior, then trim and weave in ends securely with a yarn needle.
