Making the Marvelous Baby Yoda Pattern:  Step By Step

Now, let’s discuss how you can make this incredible pattern. Follow the mini Grog amigurumi tutorial for even better results!

Crochet the Head

Pay a little more attention to the head of baby Yoda. You can get started with a green yarn and create a magic circle with it. Make sure you increase the stitches gradually. Keep crocheting till you reach a desirable height and then start decreasing.

Place the safety eyes in the opening before it is closed, leaving the correct distance between the eyes for Baby Yoda to form his sweet face. Stuff the head tight with fiberfill without having it become hard/packed.

Continue to reduce evenly until the opening is closed. Leave a long tail of the yarn to attach the head to the body later.

Make the Signature Ears

The large ears are the first thing to distinguish this character. Using green yarn, crochet two matching ears. Start with a pointy end and slowly widen the outline in the middle and back down to the opposite end. May stuff lightly for additional structure or leave them flat for a softer look.

Attach the Eyes, Nose and Facial Details

Now, let’s add to Baby Yoda the very cute personality.

If you have not yet inserted your safety eyes, make sure to do so prior to closing the head entirely.

Stitch a small pointy nose with black embroidery thread between the eyes. Embroider a small curved smile in the bottom. For an even more cute look, embroider blush to cheeks or use fabric-safe blush.

Take your time with this step. The slightest change in expression can make all the difference.

Crochet the Body

Use a brown or beige colored yarn for the robe. Use a circle base and expand upwards until you have the desired width. Keep crocheting up, no increase. Continue working up without increase to make body.

Stuff it firmly as you work, it will help it sit up. Very close to the top, gradually taper down to form the neckline where the head will fit. Leave a long yarn tail to sew on.

Create the Arms

Green yarn is used for the hands followed by brown yarn for the robe sleeves on each arm. Fill only lightly the upper part of each arm to keep them flexible.

Hold both arms on both sides of the body at the same level, below the neckline. Place them in a natural position, allowing them to appear relaxed.

Crochet the Hands

Embroider very small lines of green yarn on each hand for more detail.

This is not required but just adds a little “realism” to the doll.

Create some Legs and Feet

With green yarn, crochet two small oval feet; then switch to brown for the legs covered with the robe.

Pack them lightly – they should not be heavy.

Place both legs balanced under the body so that Baby Yoda can comfortably sit on a shelf or tabletop.

Putting a whole doll together

Once all the pieces are finished, it’s time to put it together and create your Baby Yoda.

Secure head to body with yarn tails.

If the ears, arms and legs are not already in place, sew them on.

Tie all of the loose ends nicely and gently mold the stuffing to form a balanced and symmetrical doll.

Pro Tip

Use sewing pins to pin each piece in place prior to the final sewing of the ears and safety eyes. Look at the doll from different perspectives from the same level. Just a few millimeters of the ears or eyes moving can make all the difference for Baby Yoda’s expression. One of the simplest ways to get a beautiful and professional finish is to invest a bit more time in the placement.

Caring for Your Finished Amigurumi 

Baby Yoda should be dusted every so often with a soft brush and cool water and mild soap should be used for spot cleaning as necessary to make it look its best.

Do not machine wash unless using machine safe yarn and securely fastening all parts.

Over time, if the stuffing has moved, simply mold the doll back into shape with your hands. It will also help retain shiny colors in the yarns when kept out of direct sunlight.

• Magic circles
