Friends, today we will be making a plush fox amigurumi toy and the amigurumi pattern really has very explanatory instructions for you to make the toy more easily. Although the crochet toy is made using many colors, this work is usually done on the head of the fox amigurumi toy. As you can see from the photo, we see that the body of the toy is usually made using orange and brown yarn.

Cut the yarn and close
Now let’s crochet the big white ears of the toy. In the photos, it is seen that black yarn is used in making the ears, but we do not use black yarn when crocheting. After making the ears, we will need black yarn to decorate the ears.
EARS (MAKE 2):

Row 1: 6sc in MR (6)
Row 2: [2sc, INC] x2 (8)
Row 3: [3sc, INC] x2 (10)

We crochet the legs of the toy with brown thread and in the photo below it can be clearly seen that a part of the body of the toy is made in orange.

Row 1: 8sc in MR (8)
Row 2: 8sc BLO (8)

Leave a tail for sewing
Sew on row 16-18, 1 or 2 stitches apart
NOTE: THE HDC SHOULD BE ON THE SIDE OF THE BODY
We crocheted the legs of the toy and sewed them to the body using the half double crochet technique. Since the toy is designed to be in a sitting position, it is recommended to sew the legs on the 13th and 14th rounds. Are you ready to crochet the arms of the toy?

Row 1: 5sc in MR (5)
Row 2: 4sc, INC (6)

mbo = ‘mini bubble’: 2dc (to make thumbs)
We will make the nose of the toy using white yarn, as well as the ears. Let’s get started.
NOSE:
In White:
Row 1: 6sc in MR
Row 2: incx6 (12)
slst and leave a tail for sewing, or you can glue it
NOTE: EMBROIDER NOSE BEFORE SEWING (IT’S EASIER)
Finally, we will crochet the fox’s long and voluminous tail. The total length of the tail is made in 10 rounds. Now let’s crochet the last piece of the toy.
TAIL:
