We are going to make a very special amigurumi, It is a Minion.
The Minion measures about 24 cm once finished and everything is knitted with low stitch (Pb).
Materials:
-crochet needle 3,5 mm
-Yellow cotton thread, blue, black and white.
-Two buttons.
-Wool needle for sewing.
-Bookmark so we don't get lost.
Achievement:
Body
We will work the entire body with yellow thread.

With black thread we make the hair, We cut small strands of thread and tie them to the head with a knot.. They should not protrude more than 2 cm. To make it stay on top we can use several tricks, I have chosen to spread the ends of the strands with nail polish so that they do not come apart..
V10-V57: Pb throughout the round (63p).
V58: 7 Pb y 1 decrease throughout the round (56p).
V59: 6 Pb y 1 decrease throughout the round(49p).
V60: 5 Pb y 1 decrease throughout the round (42p).
V61: 4 Pb y 1 decrease throughout the round (35p).Fill with wadding or other material.

Inspired by the pattern of All About Ami called Despicable me Minion.
Hello, you say that you have to use a 3.5 needle., What type of cotton thread did you use and what number?? Gracias
Hola, you can use any cotton thread for a needle 3,5 mm. I have done it with Luxor and Glou Glou from Oso Blanco
Congratulations. It turned out beautiful. Thanks for sharing, It's very generous of you.. I already made it with a pattern that I found on the internet and it is quite similar to the one you published. I just wanted to thank you for sharing.. Greetings
It turned out divine!!!! Congratulations!!!!you are a genius!!!!!
Gracias, I'm very glad you like it. I hope you dare to do it 🙂
It's very pretty, I hope it turns out the same, gracias
You'll see as if! We would love to see a photo when you have it.
Hola!
Before anything: thanks for the instructions 🙂
I wanted to ask you if you could give more information about the hair.. Type of thread and thickness and where you tie the knot so that it holds.
I would also like to see how your head looks from above., since if the magic ring is 7 maybe it's too open? And in that case, how do you put the hair in the center?
Thank you very much in advance
The thread for the hair is the same type that I used for the rest, cotton for needle 3,5 mm. To hold on, I have tied a couple of knots under their heads.
Regarding the beginning of the head, It's not too open., The trick is that there is no hair right in the center., I put it very close but not right there. If you are not convinced by how the ring hole looks for 7 points, try making a ring 4 points and a round with 3 increases to achieve the 7 starting points.
I hope I have helped you, kisses!
Vaya, removing minimal details it is exactly the same as AllAboutAmi. what a coincidence…
Yeah, It is similar in many ways but is different in many others.. All the best!
Don't fool yourself, not in so many
Hello, it's divine !!! Could you tell me how to make it higher? ? And how much cotton thread does each one have, more or less, thank you. I await your response.
Hola. To make it higher you just have to add more turns between the 10 and the 67 of the body. She has two yellow balls and less than 1 of the rest of the colors.
A hug
The minions came out badly
Thank you so much. I did it and it turned out divine! I love.
I'm very happy
hello, I already knitted the body and the planter, I started now with my arms and I see them so skinny, son 7 points or is it more actually??
I don't quite understand the buttonhole thing., Could you explain to me..thank you. .
Bello!!!! I stay the same, very well explained, I made it for my granddaughter who is a minions fan, in his second year of life, thanks for sharing!!!!
It's very beautiful, I'm already doing it and we'll see how it goes, thank you very much.
what does pb mean at the start of each row please thank you
To start the back bib, you have to break the thread and start again? And the straps the same? Thank you so much.
And, exact. You cut it, tie a knot and start again.
All the best
Gracias. What doesn't suit me are my legs.…. I think I don't understand the explanation and the reductions correctly..
It has been a great impetus for me to do the micro-entrepreneurship project.
I'm very happy to hear it. A hug
Hello, congratulations on your website and this fantastic patron, but I don't understand how you make the shoes, could you explain it, it doesn't add up to me.
Hola
Thanks for your comment. What's wrong with you??
It's already solved. I didn't understand how you started the shoes from the chain., but I already got it (I did exactly what you said hehehe) It's just that I hadn't done it before and it was new to me.. Congratulations!
I like, I'll see if it works for me too.
Congratulations on the website!!!! 🙂
Hello, a question; you have the patterns of the other minions bob and stuart??
I did it to Kevin and it turned out great
Hola
For now we only have that one.

Congratulations
