About Small Deer
Ask for amigurumi pattern and you get a hundred near-misses; Small Deer is one of the few that answers the question as asked. Credit goes to kristitullus. Nobody has reviewed it, which we do not hold against a new file — but it does mean the preview is the only honest evidence. Plenty of people got here before us: 218 of them saved it.
Look for the finished measurements in the pattern. A toy that comes out half again as big is a different gift from the one in the photo. We keep it filed mentally under crochet pattern, which is the use that needs the least adjusting afterwards. Open it big before you commit. At thumbnail size every pattern on this shelf looks equally good, which is the problem with thumbnails.
It answers to amigurumi, deer and stuffed animal, and that spread of wording is worth noting: a file tagged this consistently usually behaves the way the preview suggests. Nearby you will see toy, doll, plush, bear and bunny, which is where to go if this one is nearly right but not quite. On this site it lives on the Amigurumi and Toy Patterns shelf, so it also turns up for people browsing amigurumi and toy patterns rather than searching for it by name. The wording people arrive with is crochet stuffed animals, teddy bear nursery theme, vintage teddy bear nursery, doll handmade and handmade doll house, and we would rather shelve for those requests than for how a thumbnail looks in a grid.

How to use this pattern
- Download the PDF from Creative Fabrica and check the yardage and hook size before you shop — a small gift rarely needs a full skein.
- Work the gauge swatch anyway on anything that has to fit, like a hat or a bracelet; on a stuffed toy you can skip it.
- Stuff toys firmer than feels right and close the seam with a ladder stitch — a gift gets squeezed, and loose stuffing shows within a week.
- Make the first one a week before you need it. The second one is always the one you give away.
