Fuzzberg The Pumpkin Spider
Fuzzberg is cute and fuzzy. But Fuzzberg is also a spider. With 4 red eyes and 8 moving legs and so much to explore. Join Fuzzberg in the pumpkin patch and help him find the perfect gourd! The world is BIG and Fuzzberg is small. A home is all he wants. A pumpkin carved is plenty enough, with lots of room to grow. All Fuzzberg lacks is other spooky friends, all different and unique. To crawl on top of pumpkins with, and spin some silken treats. Halloween is near and is Fuzzbergs favourite time of year! So many pumpkins, too little spiders. Let’s all be a little nicer and make friends with Fuzzberg the spider.
Fuzzberg is a beginner friendly pattern that requires only the most basic of crochet skills: single crochet, increasing and decreasing. This pattern can be made in an afternoon as it only takes a few hours to make a new friend.
Important Notes
· Please read the entire pattern before beginning
· This pattern is written using US Crochet terminology.
· The pattern is made in the round without joining unless otherwise stated. A locking stitch marker will be helpful in keeping track of the first stitch of each round. Move it as necessary.
· This pattern, like other amigurumi patterns, is worked in a tight tension. Some makers may find it useful to size down a hook size or two if they find that their tension is to loose. Tight tension is necessary to ensure that the plushie will achieve the correct shape.
· This pattern has a flexible gauge, since the size of the project is affected by yarn choice and will be smaller or larger based on that choice. It is recommended to use a hook 1 or 2 sizes smaller than what the yarn calls for to avoid holes that the stuffing can escape from.
· The use of safety eyes can be substituted for embroidered eyes for children under the age of 3.
· It is suggested to use 2 colors of yarn for this pattern. However, it is not necessary to do so.
