Hello everyone who loves amigurumi…
Today I shared the amigurumi goat crochet pattern for you. Below you will find a step-by-step tutorial of this pattern and you will complete it without any difficulty. Thanks to the creator for this cute pattern.

Materials:

2-3 colors of yarn (roughly a skein total)
5.5 mm hook
2 buttons

I don’t use any fancy stitches in this pattern. You will need to know:
1) How to make a magic ring. If you don’t already know, I recommend looking it up on YouTube. The visual’s really help.
2) Sc – single crochet

3) 2sc into a single stitch – sc like normal. Then insert your hook into the same stitch, and sc again.
4) Sc2tog – single crochet two together. Insert hook into first stitch, yarn over, and pull through. Insert hook into second stitch, yarn over, and pull through. Yarn over and pull through all three loops on the hook.
5) How to sew together two crocheted pieces (it’s easier with a yarn needle, but you can also manage it with the crochet hook)

That’s it! If you can do those things, you can make Taylor!

7) Fold the circle in half, and slip stitch 3 stitches together along the sides, to keep it slightly folded. Tie off.

Assembly:

1) Sew the nose onto the middle of the head.
2) Just above the nose, stitch on the buttons for eyes. If you want to give them the horizontal goat slit, make sure you position the buttons correctly so you can sew across two opposite holes and leave the other two empty.
3) Stitch the horns on either side of the top of the head. Placement of these (and the ears) will give your goat a lot of their personality, so take your time and make sure you like how it looks.

4) Stitch the ears just behind the horns, and slightly lower on the head.
5) Now you can stitch the head onto the body.
6) Taylor is assembled with his legs tucked just under the bottom of his body, to make it easier to sit. Depending on your plans, you might want to stitch the legs into the center of the bottom, so they can dangle down. Either works.

7) Stitch the arms to the side, keeping your stitches mostly around a single point. This will allow the arms to hang to the side or you can move them to the front when your goat is sitting.
8) If you made a tail, stitch it on the butt.

You goat is done! Congratulations!
