Lechonk Amigurumi Pattern

Written By Cathrine Johansson

I’m so excited to finally share my Lechonk pattern.

The Lechonk I made as I was creating the pattern is the regular one (grey), and in my video I’m making a shiny version. I especially love the shiny version, as it looks like it’s wearing a bright pink bodysuit. Do I need to make them some leg warmers to complete the 80s vibe?!

Anyway, let’s get into the details.

Lechonk is approximately 6cm tall, 6cm wide, and approximately 7.5cm from front to back. They weigh 25grams. This includes all the materials used to make Lechonk. Just for reference, the yarn I use comes in 100g balls, which means you will only need a very small amount of each colour.

The pattern consists of three YouTube videos:

Part 1: Body (Sun, 5 Apr at 17:00BST)

Part 2: Face, Eyes & Nose (Sun, 12 Apr at 17:00BST)

Part 2: Ears, Legs, Tail & Felt pieces (Sun, 19 Apr at 17:00BST)
