Baby Mouse

Size

The mouse is about 7.5cm (3”) tall to the top of the ears, and the gingerbread tree is roughly the same height.

Tools and materials:

~ DK yarn in coat color (light grey), pink, green, red, brown and white

~ 2.75mm/C hook

~ 5mm black plastic eyes (preferably sew-on or glue-on type)

~ black thread and sewing needle, or glue, to attach the eyes

~ fiberfill stuffing

~ stitch markers, pair of scissors, pins, yarn needle

Difficulty

This pattern is suitable for intermediate level crocheters, who are confident with basic stitches (ch, sl st, sc, hdc, dc) and frequently used amigurumi techniques (invisible decrease, magic loop, working in FLO).

The pattern is written in English using US crochet terminology (UK/Aus equivalents provided). It contains many in-progress photos to help you crochet the mouse, but also includes a text-only appendix for easy printing, if you prefer working from a printed pattern but want to save ink and paper.
