Baby Yoda y Mandalorian

Baby Yoda Pattern
By: https://eringurumi.tumblr.com/
Look out friends I know there are so many crochet Baby Yodas out there, and plenty of
crochet Baby Yoda patterns, but I’m about to add mine to the mix! As always, if anyone
uses this pattern, please link back to my page, and tag me or send me a picture! I’ll always
reblog! Like the rest of you, I’m obsessed with this little sweetie and want to see as many as
humanly possible!
From what I can tell, my pattern is one of the smallest designs out there. So, while lacking in
detail (I love the tiny hands and facial features people are able to make!), the trade off is,
look how SMOL he sits in my hand! Make a dozen of them! Fill a candy dish with them! Put
one in the manger of your Nativity scene!
So, the secret to a tiny Yoda is, in part, using tiny yarn. I had this perfect ball of light green
yarn in my stash and I have no idea what it is or where I got it (possibly inherited from my
grandma?), but you can see it here compared to the Red Heart Super Saver “Buff Fleck”
yarn I used for his coat. Also, for his head and ears, I used a 2.5mm crochet hook, while for
the body I used a 3mm crochet hook. I think it makes a difference! I’m vaguely curious if this
pattern could scale up, maybe with worsted weight for the head and a chunky yarn for the
body?
^ Head:
To make sure his head has a more oval shape, I didn’t do multiple rows of the widest
diameter (counter-intuitively, to crochet a sphere, you need multiple rows of the widest
diameter, it’s just some property of how the yarn stretches!)
● 6 sc in a magic circle
● inc 6x to make 12 stitches
● (1 sc, inc) 6x to make 18 stitches
● (2 sc, inc) 6x to make 24 stitches
● (2 sc, dec) 6x to make 18 stitches
● Add 6 mm eyes between last two row, stuff
● (1 sc, dec) 6x to make 12 stitches
● dec until closed off
^ Ears:
This is a challenging one since you are working with such few stitches. When making a
narrow cone like this, I find it helps to stick my hook into the cup and press it out, to make a
more sharp point and better expose the stitches I need to work with.
● 3 sc in a magic circle
● inc 1 to make 4 stitches
● (sc, inc) 2x to make 6 stitches
● 2 rows of 6 sc
● flatten ears and sew shut
Sew the ears to each side of the head, making sure they stick out mostly horizontally.
Having them too high on the head really changes the silhouette and makes him look less
Yoda-like!
^ Coat:
As you can see, I was actually experimenting on his little potato sack at the same time I was
working on the head, because I wanted them to have good proportions to each other. I
ultimately went with a slightly larger size than you see here. I know in amigurumi often the
head is much much bigger than the body, but here I wanted him to still look a bit like he was
swimming in his cute little sack.
● foundation single crochet 14
● connect the ends in a loop
● sc 14
● sc 13 (decrease once in back)
● sc 12 (decrease once in back)
● tie off leaving a long end
^ Collar:
This is such a crazy important piece of his costume! I wanted him to look cozy and snug but
not TOO tightly wrapped up. I didn’t get a good picture of the collar pre-attached, but it really
is so simple:
● chain 14, turn, chain 2
● double crochet in second chain, then 13 double crochets across
I would recommend experimenting with the number of stitches though, depending on how
tight they are - you want it to be able to wrap around the neck of the coat with a little left over
to form the overlap. To attach the collar, I carefully sewed it AROUND THE OUTSIDE of the
main body of the cloak, NOT directly to the top of the coat, as then you can’t attach his head!
Here’s the two coat/collar combos I experimented with, which was possible since I attached
the collar before I attached the head. I don’t think that’s strictly necessary, as it does make
sewing on the head harder because you have to reach down through the collar (making sure
the head attached to the coat, not the collar!). But it is doable! (The smaller body had 12
stitches in diameter at the base of the coat, and the smaller collar and half double crochets -
I just think it looked more squished and messy.)
As for stuffing his body - I kinda didn’t! there were enough loose ends of the various yarns
that basically tucking them in provided enough structure - he doesn’t have any feet (it would
be easy to make some though, if you wanted), but he actually stands up great like this!
I mean, he stands up great, but don’t think that means he doesn’t also love to be picked up
and held! This is a better view of the back of his collar, which comes up so cute and snug
around his ears!
That’s it for Baby Yoda! Good luck and please feel free to ask if you have any questions! If
you make a little guy, pleeese share a pic with me! I can’t get enough of him! And, if there is
some interest in the pattern for Best Space Dad the Mandalorian, I may write that up later!
They are so cute with each other!!
