♥ Flounder Ufufy Amigurumi

Hey Lovelies! So, the last 2 weeks, as you probably noticed, I couldn’t make a blog post. We just moved, and the lovely people who renovated this place, cut all the internet cables. And guess what, we had to wait forever for someone to fix it. Good timing, to have no internet, in times like we live in now. Oh well, we survived 2 weeks without and we are back online. I am so tired and full of pain from the move though, so it was a challenge to upload a pattern today, a day late, I’m so glad I made it! Today I wanted to show you how to make a Flouder Ufufy, from the Little Mermaid. I hope you will love him a lot!

Assembling

Whenever I start assembling a Amigurumi, I use sewing pins first to put everything together. This way I can move all parts around easily until I am happy with how it looks. Then I will sew it on. I recommend you do so as well.

I started with sewing on Flounder his head fin/hair, the third ‘hair’ with be on top of his head. Make sure to keep checking that the stripes of his body go on the back. Next sew on his snout, mine came around row 8 and down, from the body. Next sew on his arm fins and the tail. Last cut 2 eyes (and eyebrows) from the black felt and glue those on. With a bit of sewing thread I made the eyebrows, since I thought that was easier as the felt, but you can totally do felt as well!

Flounder is already finished, so cute right?! I hope you had fun making him. If you made him, please show me on Twitter or Instagram, I would love to see what you create with my patterns.

Have a wonderful day!

Love
Danielle
