This pattern or parts of it may not be reproduced, resold, distributed, published, altered, translated, posted or shared without authorization. Try using leftover yarn scraps and snippets or old non-donate-able clothes and materials cut into strips. I encourage you to use an alternative to poly-fill (unless it’s recycled!). The filling will compress a bit over time. Not enough for the stitches to stretch and show holes, but enough to make the toy stiff and able to withstand the rough trials of toy life. Stuffing: Stuff more than you think you should. That said, in the materials list below I list the yarn I used for this pattern, even though I don’t normally recommend using conventional cotton. This pattern doesn’t take much yarn and I had all the colors I needed! Yay! With this pattern, however, I shopped my stash because I have a bunch of yarn from years ago, before I started using only sustainable yarn. This is why I choose organic cotton versus conventional cotton. It’s very important for me to use only sustainable and eco-friendly yarn so I feel good about the impact I’m making on the environment with my craft. Cotton is natural, washable, soft, and relatively inflexible so the toys don’t stretch and sag – even after being thrown across the house, down the stairs and adventured through every part of the garden! I use 100% cotton yarn because I make these toys for my kids and need them to be functional. Yarn: Take your choice of yarn! Choose colors that bring you joy and fibers that feel good between your fingers. But if you want it smaller or bigger, just use a bigger yarn and hook! Just remember, when crocheting toys, crochet tightly and choose a hook one size smaller than the yarn size recommends in order to avoid holes between each stitch where the stuffing will show through. My patterns will include the size of the finished toy based on the yarn and hook I use. It won’t have to fit someone’s body or a specific space. Ultimately with toys, gauge doesn’t matter. ![]() Gauge: 4”x4” of single crochet = 14 stitches x 18 rows. Size: This Minion will end up being 10″ tall.
