Amigurumi is a Japanese word that stands “small toy”. These fun little creatures make cute decorations, and even cuter toys that are small enough to stick in a child's pocket. Amigurumi Dinosaurs use increases and decreases to shape the pieces. Some designs have multiple colors that make these projects an intermediate skill level. The finished dinosaurs range in size from 6 inches to 11 inches tall. Use worsted-weight acrylic yarn to create all of the six patterns. The small size of the Amigurumi Dinosaurs means you can break into your yarn stash or leftovers for an economical and fun crochet project. Use the recommended colors for the dinosaurs, or get creative and choose whatever color your heart desires. Start thinking about which colors you want to use for the first dinosaur. The great part is that you can crochet as many dinosaurs as you want in a wide range of colors and textures.
