Free Crochet Amigurumi Friend Patterns
Mini amigurumi makes a friend you can always keep by your side. Already shared the plushie buddy tutorials last month, now I have these 5 free crochet amigurumi friend patterns. These amigurumi will be with hug-ready arms, a smile, and extra cuteness. Also, make irresistible last-minute presents as you can crochet with no longer than 30-minute tutorials as you watch.
Crochet Amigurumi Friend Patterns
From the animals, I have chosen the gift-ready bear, baby dinosaur, otter, and panda. Only one is non-animal amigurumi, and that is the mushroom bag charm. So, let’s get started!

Crochet Bear Amigurumi Keychain
Let’s crochet a tiny, fuzzy friend that can go everywhere with you on your keys or bag! This video pattern teaches you how to make a super cute mini bear keychain using soft yarn and a crochet hook. It is a “low-sew” project, which means most of the bear is made in one big piece so you don’t have to do a lot of difficult sewing at the end. It is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and even has a pretty ribbon to make it look extra special.
Crochet Dino Amigurumi Keychain
This tutorial is all about making a “chibi” style dinosaur, which means it has a very big, cute head and a tiny little body. Unlike other toys that look like flat shapes, this pattern uses a special trick called a “bobble” to make four little feet that actually stick out from the tummy. It is designed to be one solid piece of yarn work, making it extra tough so it won’t fall apart when you hang it on your school bag or use it as a keychain.

Crochet Mini Mushroom Amigurumi Keychain
This tutorial shows you how to make a tiny red mushroom for your keys. It has a bright red top with white spots and a white stem. Making it is like making a little hat and then adding a handle. First, you make a red circle that grows bigger and bigger. Then, you change to white yarn to make the stem. You put soft fluff inside to make it squishy and then close the bottom. Last, you add tiny white dots to make it look like a mushroom from a storybook!

Crochet Otter Amigurumi Keychain
This tiny otter is ready to go on an underwater adventure with you. This pattern creates a round and chubby otter that looks like it is floating on its back. It has a light-colored face and a dark brown body. While you are crocheting the body, you use a “bubble” stitch to make four tiny paws pop out so the otter can hold things. After the body is done, you keep going to grow a long tail. Finally, you sew on two small ears and add a black nose to finish your new water friend.

Crochet Amigurumi Keychain
A soft, black-and-white panda is waiting for a hug! It has a white head and tummy and black stripes around its middle. Because it is made with thick yarn, it feels very soft and bouncy when you squeeze it. First, you crochet a big white ball for the head and mouth. Then, you switch to black yarn to make a stripe for the arms and then back to white for the belly. After you finish the body, you make tiny black ears and legs separately and sew them onto the white parts. Once you add the black eyes and a little stitched mouth, your panda is ready to play!
