Personalizing my amigurumi is quickly becoming one of my favorite things to do. A good pattern is vital but once you get the basics down, you can start improvising and giving your toys unique features.
I did this recently with my polar bear. The original pattern called for a cowl and vest but my version received a skirt and bell sleeves. Here’s how you can add a simple skirt and bell sleeves to your own amigurumi!

Last week I wrote an introduction to amigurumi and this week is a free and easy pattern to get you started on your very own amigurumi, and just in time for Easter!
You can make these eggs in a solid color or any pattern you choose. I’ve demonstrated simple stripes in the photo tutorial below. If you’re new to amigurumi, try working the pattern in a solid color first and then make another one where you change colors. I’ll have an easily printable low-cost pattern available on Etsy and Ravelry soon and I’ll update this post when those uploads are live. Update: the Etsy link is live!
