Hey Lovelies! I am finally writing this blog post, my laptop is a tiny bit old (Almost 7 years) and it had some troubles doing what it is suppose to do. Oh well, it’s working now, all fine xD. I just think it is time to look around for a new one, finally. (I’ve been putting that of haha). Anyway, back to the point of this blog, pattern time! It’s Tsum Tsum time today and I was asked if I could make Stitch! Such an adorable creature that was on my list for quite some time now, so I pushed him a bit forward. I hope you will enjoy him as much as I do.

♥ Black Felt or Yarn for the eyes.
♥ Crochet Hook. (I used a 2,5mm)
♥ Stuffing.
♥ Stitch Markers.
♥ Yarn Needle.
♥ Sewing Pins.
♥ (Fabric)Glue. (In case you decided to go with felt).

Magic Ring.
CH = Chain.
SLST = Slip Stitch.
SC = Single Crochet.

Assembling
Whenever I start assembling amigurumi ’s I use sewing pins to put it together first. This way I can move parts around easily until I am happy and sew them on.
Start with
sewing on his nose, just under the middle of the start of the body, in between
the eyes.
Then sew on his belly, make sure to place it right, since the front part create
Stitch mouth.
After the belly is on you can attach his legs, sew them there where the belly
meets his body.
last also sew on his tail, hair and ears! I did the ears last so I could place
them in the right spot when everything is already there.
Of course don’t forget to give him some eyes! Use either felt or embroidery to
do so.
And little Stitch is born and added to our growing tsum tsum collection! I hope you had fun and I’ll see you next week! Don’t forget to show me yours on either Twitter or Instagram!
Love

Hi, thank you for the pattern!
I have one question though, how to make the tail..?
Thank you very much!
Delinlea
Hi!! I’m glad you love the pattern!
And, oops, I forgot to write down the tail *hides, I’ll gonna add it now! I’m sorry for the inconvenience!
Nicole
Hello. I am trying to do this pattern but when I am making the body. The back pattern seems to shift and does not align right with the eyes. Do you have a video or explain how you managed to create the body without the design shifting.
Thank you
Delinlea
Hi! I’m so sorry for my late reply.
It tend to happen to me slightly as well.
What can help is to grap your yarn differently, like if you always do yarn over, yarn over, try to do yarn under, yarn over instead.
You can also look up tapestry crochet tips on making it as straight as possible.
I hope this help you out. Good Luck!
Paz
Hello! I’m trying to do the pattern but I can’t find the part on how to do the legs. Thank you!
Delinlea
Hi! Oops, my fault, I will add them now!
They are basically the same as all Tsum Tsum patterns I made.
