Crochet Sesame Street’s original power couple! :) You get both patterns for less than if you'd bought them separately--good deal!
These are my original designs that I created based on Bert and Ernie from Sesame Street. These patterns are purely fan art (flattery in its highest form), and are in no way associated with the TV series.
It helps to have some experience making amigurumi toys to complete them successfully. If you can crochet in continuous rounds using a magic ring and know basic stitches, you shouldn’t have any trouble. They are crocheted in rows and rounds in several pieces, then sewn together. The patterns doesn’t take much of each color yarn—half a skein (or less) of each should get you by. You may already have what you need in your stash.
This downloadable crochet pattern set by Amber Romano includes instructions for creating two stuffed toy dolls: Bert and Ernie, characters from the beloved children's television series Sesame Street. These are fan art designs intended as amigurumi-style plush toys. The pattern provides detailed guidance for constructing each character as a finished stuffed toy suitable for play, display, or gifting.
The pattern is rated at intermediate difficulty, making it suitable for crocheters with some prior experience, particularly those familiar with amigurumi construction. The designer recommends having background knowledge in making stuffed toys before beginning this project. The primary techniques employed include:
While the pattern focuses on fundamental crochet stitches, the intermediate skill level reflects the complexity of combining these stitches across multiple pieces and rounds. The dolls are constructed by crocheting separate components in both flat rows and dimensional rounds, then joining them together with needle and thread to form the complete toy. This modular approach allows for easier construction and customization of each character's features and proportions.
This project uses worsted weight yarn in multiple colors to represent each character's distinctive appearance. The pattern recommends approximately 1 skein per color as a safe estimate, though the designer notes that half a skein or less of each color may actually be sufficient to complete both dolls, making this an economical project for those with existing yarn stashes. Standard crochet hooks appropriate for worsted weight yarn and a yarn needle for sewing pieces together are needed to complete the project.
This is a downloadable PDF pattern containing 15 pages of detailed instructions. The format allows immediate access to the complete pattern upon purchase, with no physical materials to ship.

Pattern was easy to purchase and download. I'm going to be making 2 of each for presents. Both patterns are well written and easy to follow. I've already started making Bert. 2 heads, 2 noses, 4 ears, 2 sweaters completed so far, and they are turning out perfectly 👍 I do not like sewing pieces together, but I love the end result. Thanks so much for making these patterns available, they are great! A highly recommended purchase.
The instructions are clear and concise with photos for extra added clarity. The designer captured the character of this figure perfectly.
Great instructions
