About This Among Us Amigurumi Pattern
This pattern creates a small Among Us style amigurumi with a split-leg body and a removable bone top. The design includes a decorative collar and instructions for joining two legs, shaping the bone, and finishing neatly. Youll get clear round-by-round directions and photos to help with assembly and finishing.
Perfect for gifting or as a playful desktop companion, this amigurumi uses worsted weight yarn and a 3.25 mm hook. It includes tips on tension, stuffing, and adjusting details if you change yarn size.
Why You'll Love This Among Us Amigurumi Pattern
I absolutely love this pattern because it turns a simple shape into a character with personality using very few pieces. I enjoy the satisfying shaping when joining the two legs into a single body — its a smart little construction trick. Sewing the bone into the top is a fun finishing touch that makes the piece instantly recognizable and playful. I also love that the pattern is compact enough to make multiple color variations quickly for gifts or craft markets.
Switch Things Up
I love swapping colors to make a whole crew of different characters; choose bold, neon, or pastel palettes to change the mood of each crewmate.
You can easily make a larger or smaller version by changing yarn weight and hook size — try bulky yarn for a plush chunky crewmate or fingering yarn for mini keychain versions.
I often add small embroidered patches or felt accessories like tiny hats, scarves, or backpacks to personalize each character for birthdays or holidays.
Try using safety eyes, embroidering eyes, or using French knots for different expressions and levels of durability for toys intended for small children.
For a different texture, substitute cotton for acrylic or a textured blend; just remember to tighten your stitches or use a smaller hook to keep stuffing hidden.
I sometimes add a tiny loop at the top and a keyring to turn a mini version into a zipper pull or bag charm — it makes a great little gift.
Play with the collar color and width — a contrasting collar creates a fun frame for the bone detail and can be made taller or shorter for different looks.
Want a portable version? Make the piece hollow with an opening and add a small pocket or Velcro closure to store tiny treasures inside.
I recommend experimenting with embroidery for facial details; a slightly different eye placement can completely change the character's personality.
Finally, I sometimes embroider small logos or initials on the back for custom, personalized crew members — it's a great way to make each amigurumi unique.
Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them
✗ Not keeping stitches tight enough when using worsted weight yarn; use a slightly smaller hook or tighten your tension so stuffing does not show through the stitches.
✗ Forgetting to leave the second leg un-fastened before joining; do not slip stitch off the second leg so you can join legs seamlessly with the chain-3 bridge.
✗ Not stuffing gradually while shaping; stuff small amounts at a time for smooth, even shaping and to avoid lumps in the legs and body.
✗ Miscounting stitches after increases and decreases leads to misshapen pieces; count stitches after each increase/decrease round to ensure the correct stitch count.
✗ Ignoring the note about adjusting eyes and embroidery when changing yarn weight; always test eye placement and embroidery on a swatch or loosely assembled piece before final attachment.
