I am sharing the amigurumi animal patterns that are not available anywhere for free for you. Mr. Wolf Fisherman amigurumi pattern with you.
Mr. Wolf Fisherman
The finished size of the doll is 17 cm.
The Wolf is dressed in a jeans and boots (this outfit is not removed). The toy is very stable due to its wide feet. He is a good Wolf, although he has a huge mouth, but it’s smiling.
The pattern also includes Wolf’s clothing ( a jacket and a hat) and pattern for the crocheted eyes.

The sequence of making doll: first you need to crochet Wolf’s arms, then make his body.
The arms are attached to the body in the process of its crocheting. Then you have to crochet a few details of Wolf’s head and join them together. The eyes and the ears can be made before or after sewing together the Head and the Body.

Top jaw at this step
Making a contour line row on
TJ
Keep crochet with your TJ thread
Marking the contour of BJ on TJ:
Fill a little TJ. Apply BJ to TJ ( your TJ thread have to be at the left, look at the next photo), align the crocheting edges. Mark the contour line on TJ with a disappearing mark pen along the pins (or do it with sewing thread as shown on the right photo).
Marking the contour line
Make 1 ch and crochet the contour line row along the marking, how to do this – see the next photo tutorial.
Making the contour line row (in color for visibility)
Photo 1: For the begin insert the hook into the first hole along the marking. And output the hook through the next hole. Catch the thread and pull a loop.
Photo 2: Now insert the hook into the hole, where the yarn get out, and output it through the next hole along the marking.
Photo 3: Pull out the second loop and draw it through the first one.
Photo 4: Repeat this way along the marking line to the end of the marking. It should look like this:
If you have a problem with this crocheted row, do not be upset. Just make a chain embroider stitches (seam) by hand using with a needle.
Complete the row into the 19th st of the 25th round of TJ (check, please: between the opposite ends of the contour row have to be exactly 18 st. for attaching the Bottom Jaw).
Don’t cut the TJ yarn thread.
Joining the top and the bottom jaws
Round 1: Mark the next st. with a row marker, it will be the first st. for all follow rounds.
Make 18 sc along outer side of TJ. Put together TJ and BJ, make 18 sc joining BJ and the inner side of TJ.
Photo 9: View of the inner side of the Wolf’s mouth
Round 2: [2 sc, inc, 3 sc] around (42)
Round 3: sc around (42)
Make the Wolf’s teeth
Save (fasten with a safe pin or a row marker) your work loop of the grey thread. We will continue after making the teeth.
Make first the decorative slip stitch-row under the sts of the contour row. Use an additional grey thread (if you have only one skein, use the yarn end from inside the skein). It’s too hard to see this row on the grey yarn, so look at the photo with color yarn.
Photo 10 : the green sts over the hook are the contour row, the light color stitches are the decorative row (it’s a detail of other doll, but the same way of crocheting)
Crochet around, start on BJ and finish on TJ. Pull the tails of the thread inside the Head, tie them with a knot.
Use a white yarn to make the teeth into the back loops of the contour row. Start on BJ, first make slip st., then crochet [sl st, ch] into each stitch of the contour row. Make slip stitch into the last st. of BJ and the 1st st. of TJ, then continue crocheting [sl st, ch] along TJ. Make slip stitch into the last stitch of the TJ contour row. Cut off the yarn and pull the tails inside the Head, tie them with a knot.
Photo 11: The decorative row and the teeth
Continue crocheting the Head
4. 10 sc, 2 inc, 30 sc (44)
Note: These 2 increases are exactly at the center of the Wolf’s face. Otherwise you have to change the number of sc before the increases for the 4th, 5th and 6th rounds. Install the safety eyes (if you plan to use them) on both side from the increases, at the distance 1-3 st. from the nearest increase.
5. 10 sc, inc, 2 sc, inc, 30 sc (46)
6. 12 sc, 1 inc, sc, 1 inc, 31 sc (48)
7. – 8: sc around (48)
9. [3 sc, dec, 3 sc] around (42)
10. [5 sc, dec] around (36)
11. [2 sc, dec, 2 sc] around (30)
12. [3 sc, dec] around (24)
● fill the head not too tightly, leaving a free space for the sculpting in the eyes area (if you use safety eyes, fill the Head well, it’s too difficult to make sculpting for this option)
13. [dec, 2 sc] around (18)
14. [sc, dec] around (12)
15. [dec] around (6)
● Cut the yarn, weave it through the remaining stitches, pull well to close the hole, hide the tail inside the head.
Photo 12: The Head with safety eyes
Sculpting for crochet and embroidered eyes
Find 2 increases in the 4th round at the center of the face. Use the same grey yarn for the sculpting. Insert the needle into the 4th st. on the right side from the increases, output it into the 4th st. on the left side. Make a sewing stitch on the Head, skipping 2 (or 3) rounds toward above and 1 stitch to the left. Output the needle to the right side of the face, skipping 2 (3) rounds toward above the first point. But don’t move to the right.
Photo 13: Sculpting the eyes
Tie the tails with a knot tighten well. Hide the knot and the tails inside the Head.
Eye
Iris yarn or any very thin yarn, a crochet hook 1.25 mm
1. black yarn: 6 sc in mr (6)
2. blue yarn: 6 inc (12)
3. white yarn: [inc, sc]*3; change yarn to black: [inc, sc]*3 (18)
● pull well the begin black tail, tie together the begin black and the begin blue tails, shorten them
● cut off the blue yarn, pull well, tie with a knot and shorten the finish blue and the beginning white tails
● cut off the white thread, living a long tail; use it to embroider a light fleck, pull it to wrong side, fasten off and shorten
continue with the black yarn
4. BLO: [sc, dec]*6 (12)
5. BLO: 12 sc
6. 6 dec, sl st (6)
Cut off the yarn, leaving a long tail. Weave the front loops of the rest stitches with the tail, pull well. Input the needle inside the Eye and output into the edge between the black and the white part of the 3rd round (see the next photo)
Photo 14a, b: The ready Eyes
Sewing the Eyes
Flatten the Eyes (first they look like a crochet ball) and put them into the sculpting hollows.
Align both eyes using the border between the black and the white parts (the white part is the bottom). Attach the Eyes using with pins. Sew the bottom part of the Eye into the first black row, use the 2nd black row for sewing the top part.

crocheted Eyes
Ears, 2 piece

Round 5: sc around (9)
Round 6: inc, 8 sc (10)
Round 7: inc, 9 sc (11)
Fasten off, leave a long tail
Sculpting the Nose
As well use the needle and the yarn to turn the nose up. Insert the needle near to the front teeth inside the mouth (at the center of the Top Jaw), get it out through the last black round (look at the next photo). Make a few sewing stitches, tighten the thread well. Leave the tail inside the mouth, tie them with a knot and hide inside the Head.
Photo 16 a, b: Sculpting the
Nose
The result should be something like this
Photo 17: The ready Head
Sewing the Head to the Body
1. First you need to mark a sewing circle on the bottom part of the Head. I use a coin for this work. The coin size have to be fit to the neck hole. Place your coin on the head and mark the sewing circle (see the next photo). You can use a disappearing marker pen or a sewing thread.
2. Then attach the Head to the neck with pins and check that the Head is located properly. Sew it with the yarn tail of the Body. Before completing the seam, make sure that the neck is filled firmly, add filler if necessary. How to stitch such details is well shown in this video tutorial .
