Fall is here! The air is crisper, the leaves are all turning beautiful shades of red, orange, and yellow, and Thanksgiving is just around the corner for Americans! I want to share my crochet amigurumi turkey pattern with you all today. I made him a few years ago and had the pattern available for purchase in my Etsy shop and on Ravelry, but since I knew I was going to be offering my patterns for free I took him down quite some time ago. I adore this little turkey, he is just so sweet! He has made a wonderful decoration in our house for Thanksgiving.
For my little amigurumi turkey, I used a 3.5 mm crochet hook. I used some light weight yarn in a tan color that I add leftover from another project. For his beak and feathers I used worsted weight yarn in red, yellow, and orange. His eyes are 4 mm plastic safety eyes that I purchased from 6060 on Etsy. She has a lot of amazing safety eyes and noses to choose from!
Isn’t he so cute!

OMG – this is the cutest little turkey EVER! Thanks so much for sharing the pattern. Merry Christmas!
Thank you for your kind words!! Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much for sharing this cute pattern! I’m having a little trouble with row 11. I’m getting 2 extra stitches after I finish this round. I crochet 5 stitches, then 2 together, then 5 more stitches, then 2 together, etc… but at the end there are 2 stitches left over. Should I just sc into those 2 last stitches and then start row 12? Or have I done something wrong? (My count before starting row 11 was 30 stitches all around) Thank you!! 🙂
Hi there! It sounds like you have done everything correctly up to Round 11, it is correct to have 30 stitches at the end of round 10. I use a stitch marker to keep my place, maybe that will help? At the end of Round 11 you should have 24 stitches. I hope this helps you out! Let me know if I can help with anything else! 🙂
