7. Puff the Magic Stegosaurus African Flower Crochet Pattern by Heidi Bears

Puff the Magic Stegosaurus makes use of the African Flower hexagon crochet motif and variations thereof, joined in a specific order to make a recognizable 3D item. I love this African Flower pattern and the creative possibilities of using it to make 3D items.

Puff is an excellent stash buster project, as you only need to use very small amounts of leftover sock yarn to make a motif!

Crochet Stegosaurus Frequently Asked Questions

How do you crochet a Stegosaurus dinosaur?

It can be intimidating if you’re new to the world of crocheting stuffed animals. The good news is that most crochet dinosaur patterns only require single crochet stitches, which is usually the first stitch that new crocheters learn!

You can improve your skills by learning how to crochet in rounds, how to change colors, and how to sew your stuffed animal together.

How long does it take to learn amigurumi?

It takes a few months to be able to crochet most amigurumi patterns, but it’s possible to learn the basics in one afternoon in one go, or spread out over a week. After learning how to create a magic ring, work the single crochet, and increase and decrease, you know enough to create your first project.

What is the best yarn for amigurumi Stegosaurus?

Cotton and acrylic yarns are a great match thanks to their smooth stitch definition, as well as durable and soft texture — a perfect match for cuddly toys! If you’re making a kids toy, you might want to pick a yarn hat’s machine washable.

What others supplies do you need for amigurumi dinosaurs?

  • stitch markers
  • embroidery thread (for details)
  • polyester filling (stuffing)
