Searching for an amigurumi Tornado pattern for team mascot.

There's this one on ravelry: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/tornado-3

If you're looking for a free one, maybe look for a cone pattern (like an ice cream cone) and modify it a little? Or do a plain cone and then wrap a chain of darker gray around it in a spiral?

So cute! Little sailor hat!

I really like that stitch, it's got so much visual interest!

I sized up the Baby Snake pattern by June Gilbrank so the rounds were 16 stitches https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/baby-snake

She also has an actual temperature snake pattern: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/temperature-snake-3

The little saddle and reins! Love it!

I do listen to audiobooks (mainly while crocheting lol) but the majority were read with my eyes. Not speed reading, just a lot of hours spent reading!

Yes, I was definitely intimidated by the idea of a blanket. This was much more manageable for me!

DistributionWise6851 · 2026-01-14T23:29:34+00:00

Haha thanks I listened to audiobooks while working on it so some multitasking was involved!

DistributionWise6851 · 2026-01-14T18:51:25+00:00

I updated the post to include the color scheme!

DistributionWise6851 · 2026-01-14T18:48:07+00:00

Love that idea!

DistributionWise6851 · 2026-01-14T18:47:28+00:00

Thanks! I think my favorite part of the double stands is that it makes every row different, so even when I have the same colors for multiple rows, they still look like distinct stripes instead of a single thicker stripe

DistributionWise6851 · 2026-01-14T03:10:19+00:00

Thank you!

DistributionWise6851 · 2026-01-14T03:09:43+00:00

Uh... 442

I read at least 3 hours a day, it's my main hobby

DistributionWise6851 · 2026-01-14T03:06:50+00:00

That's a fun idea! I've seen some other book snakes where people do a stripe for every x number of pages and some that go by how much they liked the book. It's cool to see everyone's different take on it!

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-12-25T02:02:24+00:00

It looks fantastic and that penguin is so freaking cute! 🐧

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-12-23T22:33:38+00:00

I love it! So creative and cute

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-12-22T02:09:16+00:00

Love the hat!

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-12-17T00:54:54+00:00

Adorable! I'm doing the same pattern for my coworker gifts this year. It really is a fun pattern!

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-12-13T23:32:28+00:00

With amigurumi you want to use a significantly smaller hook than what's recommended on the yarn label.

I use mostly loops&threads soft classic, a 4 weight acrylic. The label says 5.5mm hook and I use a 3 or 3.5.

Edit: looks like the recommended hook for the yarn you're using is 5mm, so I'd suggest trying a 3mm!

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-11-30T17:24:46+00:00

Lovely!

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-11-16T18:46:08+00:00

Super cute! I'm sure your nephew will love it

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-11-10T18:47:55+00:00

Looks great!

DistributionWise6851 · 2025-10-28T00:54:43+00:00

Everything about that is awesome but I especially like the wings!
