Are we ready to knit a tiger amigurumi pattern? Today we will crochet a cute and rather small tiger amigurumi. Pretty cute tiger. In order to give you an idea, I have shared the pictures of amigurumi crocheted in different ways as much as I can. I hope it helps you while crocheting amigurumi. Due to the small size of the amigurumi, you can even use it as a keychain amigurumi.
The most striking part of the tiger amigurumi is its head. His head is quite large compared to his body. This is of course the right choice. Because we know that the most important and remarkable part of amigurumi dolls is the head of the amigurumi toy. A good facial expression is absolutely essential. I think the tiger stripes look very nice too. The details are extremely well done. Now let’s crochet the tiger amigurumi step by step.
