Materials Needed for Sparky & Persephone Frankenweenie Amigurumi Pattern

Assembly Instructions

• Pin white hair pieces onto side of Persephone's head working in an S shape, then sew onto sides of head
• Pin head to body for extra support, adding more stuffing before closing neck, then sew head to body
• Pin ears onto side of head overlapping gray and black sections, then sew ears into place
• Pin arms onto front of body underneath neck in forward-facing angle (for Sparky, place underneath bolts if using safety eyes)
• Turn body upside down with nose facing away, pin legs underneath body between appropriate rounds, then sew onto body
• Pin tail onto back of body at indicated rounds, then sew into place
• For Sparky: Pin white square onto back of body, sew into place, pin spots onto square and sew, add black embroidery stitches around edges
• Embroider random stitches on arms, legs, and body for Frankenweenie effect, add black shadow on stitches for enhanced look, embroider eyebrows with black yarn

Important Notes

• 💡Use stitch markers to mark beginning of each round and track your progress through pattern
• 💡Paint safety eyes with multiple thin layers of white acrylic paint rather than one thick coat for best results
• 💡Eye placement is crucial for achieving correct expression—verify spacing before securing backs permanently
• 💡Create sunken eye effect before placing eye washers; you'll need to remove and re-stuff head during this process
• 💡Apply black eyeshadow around eye holes before inserting eyes to achieve authentic Frankenweenie look
• 💡Stuff firmly but not overly tight, especially in head where you need flexibility for eye placement technique
• 💡Type and method of stuffing affects final appearance—Polyfil stuffing recommended for best results
