Hey Lovelies! When I was making this Tsum Tsum, I realized that this is the last Tsum pattern of the year! A bit weird to realize the year is almost done, I so hope 2021 wil be a better year!
But don’t worry, Tsum Tsum patterns will be back next year! I am already trying to think of what to make etc. Let’s be a bit better prepared this time around. Today we will make Mushu, from Mulan! I somehow struggled a lot with this one, while, in fact, it isn’t too hard. Not sure what was wrong with me. I hope you will have a better time making this pattern.
For this pattern you’ll need:
♥ Yarn in the colors Red, Dark Red, Yellow, Black, White and Blue. (I used Zeeman Supersoft)
♥ Crochet hook. ( I used a 2mm)
♥ Stuffing.
♥ Yarn Needle.
♥ Sewing Pins.
♥ Stitch Marker.
♥ Black Felt and (Fabric)Glue.
♥ Scissors.
♥ Pink Acrylic Paint + Brush. (optional)
Stitches used (US Terms):
Magic Ring.
CH = Chain.
SLST = Slip Stitch.
SC = Single Crochet.
ST = Stitch.
Inc = Increase.
Dec = Decrease.
(…) = Repeat the space in brackets the given number of times.
[…] = Total number of stitches.
This pattern is made with continues rounds, unless stated otherwise. Use a stitch marker to mark your first/last stitch of your row.

♥ Assembling
Whenever I start assembling Amigurumi, I always use sewing pins first. This way I can move parts around until I am happy with how it looks, then I’ll sew them on.
Start with sewing on Mushu’s belly to the body, sew all along the edge. Then you can add the tail as well, don’t forget to add the tip of the tail and the extra pointy bits for the tail. Next sew on Mushu’s legs.
After that it’s time to assemble his face. Start with his nose, I placed it just under where you started the body. Then you also know where the whiskers and eyes go. Sew these all on neatly. When you almost sewn on the nose, add a bit of stuffing in there.
Then position the horns, on top of his head, make sure you sew them on the right way. Under the horns, come the ears. Fold those in half and sew it on. Under that 2 small spikes will go on each side.
Last sew on the spikes on his back, 1 Medium, 1 Large and then 1 Medium nicely in the middle.
Don’t forget to make pupils for the eyes, I used a bit of black felt and glued it on. There are also some details in the nose, use a bit of black yarn and embroider those on.
And Mushu is done! I hope you had fun making this pattern! This one was requested by one of my followers. So, if you have request for future patterns as well, just let me know and I’ll see what I can do for you! Just contact me on Twitter or Instagram or leave a comment/contact form. If you made any of my patterns I would love to see, please show me on Socials as well with #DelinleaDIY.
Have a wonderful day and I’ll see you next week!
Love
Danielle
