Crochet Donut Buddies: 50 Easy Amigurumi Patterns for Collectible Crochet Toys

Create your own adorable Crochet Donut Buddies—collectible toys for kids that are easy to make and hours of fun!

Who doesn't love a donut or three? These easy crochet patterns allow you to make over 50 handmade toys that young kids will love to play with and collect. Author Rachel Zain, founder of Oodles of Crochet, developed these patterns for her non-verbal autistic son. Using easy crochet techniques and standard materials, you too can make a menagerie of toys that will delight kids of all ages and abilities.

One you learn the techniques for the basic crochet donut, you will discover how to transform them into farm animals, safari animals, sea creatures, seasonal and holiday designs, and more. Each donut measures around 5 inches diameter, making them perfect for little hands to grip. And you can add squeakers, rattles, crinkles and bells to create extra-special sensory toys.

Zain includes ways to play with hook size and yarn gauge to make supersized donuts pillows or tiny donut keychains. She also shares some fun ideas for different games you can play with your donut characters, including storytelling, role play, counting and sorting games and more.
