This adorable little trio was designed as part of the “design along” challenge with Hobbii Yarn on Instagram. As part of the challenge, Hobbii gifted me a heap of colours in their Baby Cotton Organic yarn and with the input of the Instagram community, these designs came to life.

My Kawaii Music Trio are an easy amigurumi (crochet) pattern written in English using US (American) terminology. The pattern includes detailed instructions in an easy to follow layout but a knowledge of basic crochet stitches and techniques used to make amigurumi is essential.

Your tension, yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of your finished items. My sizes are:
o Drumby the Drum = 6cm tall and wide, 7cm deep
o Marge the Maraca = 12cm long
o Macy the Microphone = 10cm tall

You will receive one PDF file which requires software like Adobe Reader to open (this is free to download).

You will need:

• 2.5mm hook/C-2 (US)
• 4ply yarn/fingering > less than 50g yarn in each colour (i’ve used 7 colours
• BLACK 4ply yarn or embroidery thread
• 1 pair of 7mm plastic safety eyes
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle
• Polyester toy stuffing
• Stitch marker

Notes:

• Amigurumi is usually stitched in the round.
• A yarn with no stretch is best, I prefer cotton.
• When changing colour, yarn over the new colour and pull through on the stitch prior.
• Generally, the hook you use for amigurumi will be a smaller than for other crochet as you want the stitches tight.
• For this pattern, I’ve used the following yarn: o TEAL = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 33 o PINK = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 18 o SOFT YELLOW = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 2 o DAFFODIL = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 26 o ORANGE = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 25 o LEMON = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 27 o MUSTARD = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 24 o BLUE = Hobbii Yarn Baby Cotton in colour 36
