Materials Needed for Rizzo the Ladybug Amigurumi Pattern

Assembly Instructions

• Place the cap on the head positioning it near the opening of the head, then sew the cap securely onto the head ensuring it sits flat
• Sew the head to the body adding stuffing when you get to the last few stitches to ensure proper firmness and shape
• Pin the arms to the side of the body approximately between rounds 21 and 22, then sew them onto the body in a forward facing angle
• Optional: Cut a piece of pipe cleaner in half, fold it in half again and twist, then insert into the lower half of the antennae cutting excess off, or stuff them instead
• Pin the antennae onto the cap approximately between rounds 8 and 11, then sew them securely onto the head
• Turn the body upside down with the front of the face facing away from you, pin the legs onto the bottom of the body approximately between rounds 4 and 5, then sew them on
• Pin the wings onto the back of the body sewing only where indicated for secure attachment, then cut circles of various sizes from black felt and glue them onto the wings with hot glue or fabric glue
• Wrap the scarf around the front of the neck with one side overlapping the other, pin it in place, then sew it securely onto the neck
• Thread your needle with black thread and embroider eyebrows above each eye and a smile below the nose, then add white yarn highlights to the lower corner of each eye wrapping to the top without pulling too tightly
• Add blush to the cheeks using actual makeup blush for a sweet finishing touch

Important Notes

• 💡Use a stitch marker consistently to mark the beginning of each round throughout the entire project for accurate stitch counts
• 💡Do not join rounds unless specifically stated in the pattern, always work in a continuous spiral for smooth results
• 💡All stitches are worked in both loops unless the pattern states otherwise such as BLO back loops only
• 💡Eye and nose placement may need adjustment depending on the specific yarn brand and hook size you choose to use
• 💡The cap should be positioned near the opening of the head before sewing for the most natural ladybug appearance
• 💡Do not stuff the wings as they need to remain flat for proper appearance and to allow felt spots to adhere smoothly
• 💡Pin all parts in place before final sewing to ensure correct positioning and overall symmetry of your finished ladybug
• 💡When adding felt spots you can choose to crochet them instead if you prefer not to use glue or felt
