Amigurumi Long Legged Baubles Free Pattern
Long Legged Baubles
Four cute long legged festive crochet baubles for you to make in time for Christmas. Let me know how you get on, and try out different looks for your snowman. I fancy making one with a black top hat, or maybe a multicoloured scarf.
They make a wonderful gift and you can whip all 4 of them up using just a few 50g balls of yarn.
Materials
Double knit wool in light brown, brown, red, white, black and orange
3mm crochet hook
yarn needle
6mm poly ball
stuffing
Gauge – the bauble body should fit snugly around the 6cm foam ball. If your bauble body is too small, try using a larger crochet hook. If your work is too big, use a smaller hook.

In brown, create an i-cord, 20 st high as follows:
Ch 3, push hook through 2nd st, catch yarn and pull through so you have 2 loops on hook. Push hook through 1st st of ch, catch yarn and pull through so you have 3 loops on hook.
*Slip the first 2 loops off your hook carefully. Hold them with your left hand so you don’t loose them. Hook yarn and pull through the loop on your hook.
Push hook through the st you took off your hook that is closest to the hook, catch yarn and pull through so you have 2 loops on your hook. Push hook through the remaining st that you had taken off your hook, catch yarn and pull through so you have 3 loops on your hook.*
Repeat the steps between the * 19 times. Catch yarn, pull through all 3 loops on your hook and break yarn to finish. Weave in ends.
Sew the feet onto the legs, then the legs to the body as in the photo.

rnd 16 – *dec 1, dc 3* 6 times (24)
rnd 17 – *dec 1, dc 2* 6 times (18)
rnd 18 – *inc 1, dc 2* 6 times (24)
rnd 19 to 22 work even (24)
rnd 23 – *dec 1, dc 2* 6 times (18)
stuff head with fibre fill
rnd 24 – *dec 1, dc 1* 6 times (12)
rnd 25 – *dec 1*, 6 times (6)
chain 8, sl st back into head to create the loop you will use to hang your bauble. Break thread and pull through to finish, use tail of thread to sew up the 6 st on top of head. Weave in ends.
This completes the basic shape.

In white, magic circle 6
or
chain 6, sl st into 1st st to create a loop. dc 6 st into centre of loop.
rnd 1 – *inc 1* 6 times (12)
