Hello dear friends, if you’re looking to make a seahorse amigurumi toy, you’ve come to the right place. The amigurumi pattern is both free and available for download in PDF format by clicking the link at the very bottom of the pattern. The seahorse is designed using a turquoise blue color, but it also has white details. Among these white details, we can see its belly and back. The seahorse’s eyes are highlighted with black thread. However, I must admit that the seahorse has a rather long snout. Its long, curly tail is also very striking and stands out clearly.
Easy Crochet Seahorse Pattern, Free Plushie Design
To make this cute and rare toy, you will need to use a 7.5mm hook, which is quite large. The recommended yarn brand for the toy is Himalaya Dolphin Baby. The completed size of the toy is 15 cm. Now, if you’re ready, let’s get started.
Designer: chancecrochett
MATERIALS
• 7.5mm crochet hook
• Yarn: Himalaya Dolphin Baby Color: Baby Blue (80315) Bead fiber (for filling)
• Stitch markers
• Scissors
• Wool needle
• Small amount of black thread for mouth
The finished size : 15 cm
ABBREVATIONS
• MR: Magic Ring
• st(s): Stitch(es)
• sl st: Slip stitch
• ch: Chain
• SC: Single Crochet
• INC: Increase
• DEC: Decrease
• FLO: Front loop only
• BLO: Back loop only
First, we’ll crochet the head, body, and tail as a single piece using blue yarn. We start with a magic ring and 6 single crochets, then continue shaping the toy by increasing stitches in each round. For the body part, we work with 24 single crochets and then decrease stitches to complete the shape. Finally, curl the tail inward and sew it to the body of the seahorse.
HEAD & BODY & TAIL
Use Blue yarn:
• Round 1: 6 sc in MR (6)
• Round 2: (inc) repeat 6 times (12)
• Round 3: (sc, inc) repeat 6 times (18)
• Round 4: (sc, 2 inc) repeat 6 times (24)
• Round 5: 24 sc (24)
• Round 6: 24 sc (24)
• Round 7: (2 sc, dec) repeat 6 times (18)
• Round 8: (sc, dec) repeat 6 times (12)
• Round 9: 12 sc (12)
• Round 10: (sc, inc) repeat 6 times (18)
• Round 11: (2 sc, inc) repeat 6 times (24)
• Rounds 12-16: 24 sc (24)
• Round 17: (2 sc, dec) repeat 6 times (18)
• Round 18: (sc, dec) repeat 6 times (12)
• Round 19: 6 dec (6)
• Round 20: 6 sc (6)
• Round 21: dec 1 st to make 5 sts (5)
• Round 22: dec 1 st to make 4 sts (4)
• Rounds 23-34: 4 sc (4)
• Fasten off and wrap the tail inward before sewing it to the body.

To make the snout, we’ll also use blue yarn. Start with a magic ring and crochet 5 single crochets. You will need to sew the snout onto the 5th and 6th rounds of the head. If you prefer a thinner and smaller snout, you can adjust the number of single crochets instead of changing the number of rounds.
NOSE
Use Blue yarn:
• Round 1: Work 5 sc in MR (5)
• Round 2-6: 5 Sc (5)
• Round 7: 1 sc x1 (6)
• Round 8: 1 sc x1 (7)
• We sew it on the 5th and 6th rows of the head with a needle.
You’ll need white yarn to make the fin of the plush seahorse. Start by chaining 18, then work slip stitches and chain 3 on each chain stitch to create the wavy effect. Sew the fin from the top of the head down to the neck.
FIN
Use White yarn:
• Make Chain 18, turn.
• Starting from the 2nd ch from the hook, work the following in each stitch across: (sl st, ch 3) repeat this pattern until the end of the chain.
• Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing.
• Sew the piece tightly in an upright position from the top of the head down to the back of the neck.
We’ll also use white yarn to make the cute little arms of the seahorse. Let’s begin! Start with a magic ring, and in each round, work double crochets and chains. Sew the arms onto the 4th round of the body. That’s it!
ARMS (MAKE 2)
Use White yarn:
• In a magic ring:
• Make 2 double crochets (dc)
• Chain 2, then make a slip stitch (sl st) into the ring.
• Make 2 more double crochets (dc)
• Tighten the magic ring.
• Wrap a piece of yarn around the center to shape the bow. Sew it onto Round 4 of the body using a yarn needle.
Congratulations!
You just finished your toy!
