Amigurumi Santa Mouse Free Pattern
SANTA MOUSE (4.5 INCHES)
Let’s create a Santa Mouse. When creating the Mouse, please take into account your density
of crocheting (it differs for everyone). My density is average. If you use a different yarn, the
size of the toy may slightly change, but it will remain the same cute baby mouse.
ABBREVIATIONS
MR – magic ring
sc – single crochet
dec – decrease (make two stitches together)
inc – increase (make two stitches in the same stitch of the previous round)
dc dec – double crochet decrease
dc inc – double crochet increase
sl st – slip stitch
dc – double crochet
ch – chain stitch
(.) – total number of stitches after the round
