Play chess on a large scale with this Amigurumi Chess Set! The rook is 5-7/8” tall with linked tr stitches used to create the castle turrets!

In addition to the amigurumi rook, this pattern set includes instructions for the king, queen, bishop, knight and pawn; as well as a quick chess board afghan created with join-as-you-go motifs!

SPECIAL DEAL: If you are planning to purchase the Triple Strategy Afghan Set (a double-sided afghan using my double mosaic technique) or the Interlocking Strategy Afghan Set (two interlocking filet mesh afghans), do not add this listing to your cart. It is already included as a BONUS to both of these patterns!

Finished Size:
5-7/8” high x 6” diameter

Skill Level:
Intermediate

Yardage:
400 yds. of each color to make a total of four rooks.

Additional Materials:
5-7/8” plastic canvas circles were enclosed at the bottom of the chess piece to create stability.

This pattern is written in standard U.S. terms.
