Todays daily new amigurumi free crochet pattern is Amigurumi The Sleepy Fox.
I want to give you some informations about this amigurumi free pattern ; The Sleepy Fox.

 I’ve realized some of you have some trouble understanding how large the head of the fox should be. I’ve tried to visualize this by adding two new pictures at the end of this pattern. As you can see, the head is quite large – most of the fox consists of the head part. Another thing: when I crochet the muzzle, I usually crochet harder/firmer than I do when I crochet the rest of the body parts. This makes the muzzle firmer and narrower. Now, back to the orignal text: 

So, this is the pattern for my design the Sleepy Fox. As you may have predicted, you can use any yarn and colour you want. I use the yarn “Tilda” from Svarta fåret, and needle size 2,5. It’s a thin yarn and using that with the mentioned needle will make the fox about 17 centimeters high (ears included). The stuffing of the amigurumi fox is made little by little – once you start making it, you will probably know when and where to put the stuffing.
How you stuff your fox (or other amigurumi) usually has a huge impact on the result. Try to pay attention to each body part while you stuff it. For the head of this particular fox, I try to make the face more wide than high, and so forth. In other words: the shaping while stuffing is essential to the final result. If you’re an absolute beginner and stumble upon difficulties – please let me know by leaving a comment and I’ll try to guide you!
Further down this page you will find pictures of the fox during the working process and from different sides.
