🧵 The book
The Book N°13 DMC Sports Animals is a book dedicated to crochet amigurumi lovers with a passion for sports. It includes 5 complete illustrated patterns to create thematic little animals inspired by tennis, golf, rugby, soccer, and cricket. Each pattern is presented with clear symbols and detailed explanations, perfect for those who already have basic crochet knowledge and want to try their hand at creative and colorful projects.
The book is designed to be used with DMC Happy Cotton yarn, a soft 100% cotton available in 50 vibrant colors, ideal for small amigurumi. The patterns are accessible even to those approaching the world of sports amigurumi for the first time, with step-by-step instructions that guide you through creating each character.
🧬 The 5 sports patterns: what you will create
Every pattern in the book features a sports-themed animal with unique characteristics. The tennis model features a character with a racket and headband, perfect for tennis enthusiasts. The golf pattern includes details like a golf club and golfer's cap. The rugby model shows a sturdy little animal with an oval ball, while the soccer model is characterized by cleats and a round ball. Finally, the cricket model completes the collection with a cricket bat and traditional uniform.
Each amigurumi measures approximately 15-20cm in height once completed and requires about 2-3 balls of DMC Happy Cotton to make, depending on the chosen colors. The patterns also include instructions for creating the sports accessories that characterize each character, making every project unique and recognizable.
📦 Book format and content
Book N°13 is a printed book in a practical format, easy to consult while you work. Each pattern is presented with illustrated symbols and written explanations, a combination that makes understanding easier even for those without much experience with amigurumi patterns. The pages are organized by sport, with color photos of the final result and clear information on the necessary materials.
In addition to the patterns, the book includes an introductory section with the basic crochet stitches used in the projects and practical tips for assembling amigurumi. It is an ideal format to keep beside you while you work, without needing to look at screens or print out loose sheets.
🧶 Recommended yarns and hook
The book is designed to be used with DMC Happy Cotton, a DK (Double Knit) 100% cotton yarn, available in 20g balls with about 80 meters in length. This cotton is particularly suitable for amigurumi thanks to its soft and compact feel, which allows for a uniform surface without visible holes. The recommended crochet hook is 2.5-3mm, the ideal size for working with Happy Cotton while maintaining correct tension.
If you do not have Happy Cotton available, you can use alternative yarns such as DMC Happy Chenille for a softer, velvety effect, or Catania Cotton for a more classic texture. The important thing is to maintain a similar weight (DK) and use a compatible crochet hook to achieve the right stitch density.
