Special Stitches
SC2tog (using invisible decrease method): Insert hook into front loop of the first stitch. Insert hook into front loop of second stitch. Yarn over. Draw through the first two loops on hook. Yarn over. Draw through both loops on hook.
Notes
- Checking your gauge is not required for this pattern. Use a hook that is smaller than the size recommended for your yarn weight. This will ensure that your stuffing will not show through the stitches.
- All pieces are worked in the round. Use a stitch marker to indicate the beginning of each round.
- Invisible decreases are recommended. Please see “Special Stitches”.
- Safety eyes and noses pose a choking risk for babies; therefore, if making this toy for a baby, I recommend using yarn, felt, or embroidered details.
- All pieces, except the ears, require stuffing. Stuff each piece as you work it to ensure each piece is completely filled.
- See tutorial photos.
Pattern
For the free fox crochet pattern to look like the one pictured:
- Substitute color A (gray) for orange.
- Substitute color C (black) for gray.
Another great option for transforming the wolf into a fox would be:
- Substitute color A (gray) for orange.
- Substitute color B (white) for cream.
- Substitute color C (black) for brown.

Tips & Tricks
- Use the invisible decrease method so that your SC2tog stitches will blend in with your single crochet stitches.
- Use a stitch marker to keep track of your continuous rounds.
- Check out the list of amigurumi tips and tricks for more information.
Alterations
- Parfait Chunky or another size 6 yarn, along with a hook that fits your desired yarn, will create a larger amigurumi fox. I use a 5.0mm (H) crochet hook with Parfait Chunky.
- Use this free fox crochet pattern with pink yarn instead of orange for a fun and bright fox amigurumi.
