“Rainbow Caterpillar”
Amigurumi rainbow caterpillar free pattern
We need:
• Himalaya Dolphin Baby yarn of iridescent colors for the Caterpillar body
• YarnArt jeans yarn in black, white, green for the eyes of the Caterpillar
• Hooks No. 4 and No. 2
• Filler
• scissors
• Needle for sewing parts (sewing on Velcro)
• Tweeters, rattles, rustlers, Velcro – all this is optional. I had a goal to make an educational toy for a child, so I used everything. You can simply sew the parts together.
We do not forget to fill all the details during the knitting process
We add rattles, squeaks to every detail, rustlers (I used a regular baking sleeve as a rustler)
We start with the ponytail:
