Amigurumi Yorkie Tutorial
Novice Sandy on Knitting Paradise found this absolutely adorable pattern for an
Amigurumi Yorkie. The only problem is the pattern is incomprehensible. I think it was
originally written in Japanese and the translation is really bad. Fortunately, I have

crocheted some amigurumi patterns using the Japanese chart method so I get what's

It helps to have a picture of a Yorkie. Here is a good photo or you can use the photo on

I've had some questions about how to sew on the fur that is pulled up between the ears, so
I'm adding this to help with this question.
Attach yarn at the bottom of the snout for the hair that is pulled up between the ears.
Once you have enough yarn attached, pull it up between the ears and use some attached
yarn by the ears to tie the yarn up.

Página 19 de 51
Página 20 de 51
Trim floss to make it even
Sew some yarn at the base of the snout and pull it back between the ears and then tie it
back. You can also use ribbon. Then sew on the buttons for the eyes.

Página 21 de 51
Here's how it looks from the back. The black fur is the black shimmer yarn.

Black yarn. How'd you attach it??
Thank you very much for posting this little fellow....

I sewed the yarn up underneath the base of the head and made it even lengths on both side and
cut it. I went all around the head that way and then I sewed yarn underneath the yarn I had
already done to make it thicker and then trimmed it a little longer than the first row. I did
about 3 rows altogether.

Thank you for this! I had seen that Yorkie Pattern and I took it and wrote it down so that I
could make it and did, but it was one of the first things I had done and I didn't quite know how
to put it all together correctly but it seemed to come out ok. Now I will use your instructions
and try to make it again. I don't know how to send you a pic but I could show you a pic of the
one I made from the original pattern and then I'll have to see how it comes out using your
pattern which will be much easier!

Hi, I love this pattern and your Yorkie looks amazing. However, is there somewhere I can get a
really simplified set of instructins as I'm a beginner and really struggling to understand
making a magic circle without it turning more into a tube. I'm from UK and so I'm not sure if
terminology differs or if I'm just being really slow! I would love to make one of these for my
mum and was told crochet was really easy but I'm starting to doubt that. Thanks!

You can try this video by Crochet Geek
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHYVutk2iYY
Make sure you pull the tail tightly once you join your circle together. Once you finish
the piece you can sew the tail in to make the hole stay closed.
If you are still having problems you can chain 2 and then do all the stitches in the
second chain (first chain you made) from the hook.
Also, I'm not sure if you realize it or not, but UK crochet terms are different from US
terms. A UK sc is an US dc (double crochet). To see how to do an sc US style take a
look at my baby rattle pattern. It has graphics on how to do single crochet.
http://crochetparfait.blogspot.com/2012/07/baby-rattlecat-toy-pattern.html
Crochet Geek also has a good video tutorial on how to do single crochet.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hwHtyJFMf0
There are links in the pattern for special stitches, like the sc2tog that will lead you
tutorials.

Hi Pam,
Loved this little Yorkie as soon as I saw the picture.
I have it made, and am now starting to put the "hair" on it. I don't understand how to
do that part. At first I was pulling yarn under a stitch, and wrapping it back around the
stitch to hold in place, but after looking over the instructions again, I removed what I had
completed, and started just pulling the yarn under the stitches, and letting it hang. If I do
that though, I thought that will just pull out of the stitches.
How do I actually keep the yarn "hair" in place?
Reply
Replies

You could try knotting the hair, close to the stitches, on either side, but I just pulled
it through. I guess it depends on whether it's going to sit around looking pretty or
get played with.
Reply
Judy Hart March 16, 2013 at 5:35 AM

Thanks Pam, I just can't find a knot I like the look of. Have no plans for it, so will probably just
go with hoping it just sits around looking pretty.
I loved this pattern, it will join my 3 other yorkies, they look at it like what is that! I hope the
little one doesn't get ahold of it to pull the hair out. My three are real yorkies.
Thanks again for this patter, it is the first time I have tried one like this.

Blankets are finished! So I've got the dog made...and I know I'm going to have to
make a Skippyjon Jones next (he's a chihuahua, and this pattern would be perfect)
and I have some questions. Does it matter what order you do the hair in? Black
first? And I wasn't able to find the exact brands, but I think they'll work. I've got
black bamboo viscose instead of the shimmer. But how long did you cut the strands?
and how much did you use?
My many grateful thanks,

I got a question asking about the order of sewing on the fur. On the legs, sew on the fur from
the bottom up so you can see what you are doing. Other wise the yarn will cover up where you
need to sew on next. The yarn I used is just a suggestion, other crocheters have used different
yarns to great effect, check out these examples on Ravelry.com.

(From a groomer) The part on a Yorkie head goes from the outside eye corner to the inside ear
corner, straight across to the other inside ear corner, and form the other outside eye corner to
the inside ear corner on that side, making a square, with the hair growing between the eyes
also being pulled up into the topknot. Hold the hair straight up, place a band, the fold over
toward the back of the head and place a second band directly over (or on top of) the first band.
The hair ends should go back between the ears and blend in with the rest of the hair on the
head and neck. No hair from the back of the head or the neck goes into the topknot. This will
help your pup look more realistic. Hope this helps! LOVE the pattern! I plan to make my own
soon, and maybe a schnauzer as well!

Cute? Sweet? Adorable? Lovable? Brilliant? None of those words measure up, so I'm going to
throw my dictionary away. I love this little pup. When I first saw the pic, it thought it was
crochet booties and a bow on a real dog. Just amazing.

I really appreciate u giving us this pattern. I used to have an adorable Yorkie!!! I'm a novice at
crocheting. My question is on Round 13-16 , am I supposed to continue with sc all the way
around?

Pam G December 17, 2015 at 6:10 AM

I'm not sure if you are talking about the body or the head, but in each case from
rows 14 to 16 you will be doing a specified amount of scs followed by a decrease
(sc2tog). This lowers the stitch count as you move from row to row. So for example
Rnd 14: 1 sc in next 5 scs, sc2tog (36 scs) do one sc in each of the next 5 scs and then
do a sc2tog over the next 2 scs, then repeat 6 times until you have made 36 stitches
altogether (I called them all scs because this is what they look like but there will
actually be 30 scs and 6 sc2tog stitches. If you don't know how to do the sc2tog
stitch you can find it here http://crochetparfait.blogspot.com/p/sc2tog.html

I do not see instructions on how to make the black fur or how/where to attach it. Am I missing
something?

It's basically done the same way as the other fur. I plan on putting up a video
tutorial in the near future to show how to attach the fur.

black. It's been so much fun!

you make after the increase and before you start to decrase.I see just you inrease until 48 and

For both the body and the head, after you have increased to 48 stitches you do 2
rows (10 and 11) with no increases or decreases, then you start to decrease on row
12.

Hi Pam! I've loved this pattern since I first saw it a long time ago and am finally getting around
to making it. I do have a question though. I'm a single, disabled mom so obviously my funds
are limited and unfortunately I don't have a car. So I was wondering if it is absolutely
necessary to use the embroidery floss and the black glossy or if you think I could get away with
using regular yarn for the hair? I really want to make it but if it isn't going to look right using
regular yarn then I don't want to waste my time.
Thank you for translating the pattern. Your work is beautiful!

OMG this is the cutest pattern, you are so wonderful to post for free. It's looks like a challenge,
I have never done Amigurumi. This is so darn cute I have to try it. I have a lion that I got off a
website and it's very similar in the look although it looks like a lion. I have a feeling this is
Amigurumi also. I have not tried the pattern as I have no small children left in the family.

Hi Pam busy making the Yorkie. Trying to find the tutorial on putting on the back hair. Is there
one? Do I go down the length (middle) of the back? What happens with the tail? I see their is
black hair under the head too. How do I do that? Would really appreciate your help! Thanks
for sharing this cute pattern.

We currently have a ShihTzu and a toy poodle. Crocheting a Yorkie will let me get one now?
