Snorlax crochet
pattern
An old friend of mine took a look at my website recently and told me that I’ve gotta
bring that “recipe site energy” & ramble on about stories. I rarely type much about
myself or my life, sooo this should be fun.

Waaaay back when I was a kid, Pokemon Red&Blue came out. I had one of the see-
through purple Gameboys & Pokemon Red. It was by far my favourite game as a kid. I
spent hours playing it & trading Pokemon with my younger sister. Probably why now,
at 31 years old, I still have the Kanto town map & where to find the legendary
Pokemon in it memorized.
inc - increase
dec - decrease

Notes
This guy is large. I mean, like, VERY large. Finished size: he’s about 26 inches tall, 18.5
inches~ from feet to back & 28 inches wide (from arm to arm).

Like all amigurumi, gauge doesn’t matter. Just make sure your stitches are
tight/consistent.

PLEASE read through the pattern & links to tutorials provided to make sure that you
understand how to go make it BEFORE starting it.
This pattern has been checked over THOROUGHLY - there are NO errors in it. Since it is
free, I won’t be here to help if you get stuck. All the info is already here, so PLEASE be
sure to read through it carefully!

This pattern is NOT suitable for beginners - though it MAY be able to be made by
more “advanced” beginners, or those who are well versed at reading patterns.

I didn’t stop to take a million pictures of pieces while making them, but there are
some pictures to help at the bottom.

If you get stuck, there’s tutorials all over my website. The oval shape is linked under
the parts that use that shape. If you’re super stuck, a tutorial for reading patterns can

beginning of this round does NOT have an error in it. My rounds shifted a bit (the first
increase wasn’t centered with the chain) - it should be “4 sc, inc, 4 sc, inc” BUT
instead, one of the first four single crochet stitches is at the end of the round. Ezpz.

9. 4 sc, dec, 4 sc, dec, 7 sc, dec, 4 sc, dec, 4 sc, dec, 7 sc, dec (36) again, rounds shifted
a bit, so instead of doing the 3 sc and then having the fourth sc at the END of the

follow the pattern - they’re only written for the folks who are nit-picky about patterns

Flip the belly patch over so that the right side of the piece is facing. Attach a new
piece of yarn to the bottom left corner & sc a border around. Make 3 sc in row 42.
Make 4 sc down the sides of the rows of the top piece. Dec over the next two stitches.
Make 4 sc up the other side of the rows (on the second top piece) & make 3 sc in row
47. Then continue on down the other side of the piece.

Make sure that you have an even number of stitches on both of the long sides of the
piece.

When finished crocheting the border, fasten off & leave a very long tail to sew the
belly patch to the body.

Assembly
Stuff the body & head firmly. It’ll take a LOT of stuffing, but that’s okay. He’ll be nice &
cuddly.

Using the tail left over on the body, sew the body to the head. Sew through the tops of
the stitches on the body and around the POSTS of the stitches from the last round of
the head. The head should be slightly oval shaped (the increases from round 13 of the
head should be on the sides) & the body is definitely oval shaped - so be mindful of
that when sewing the two pieces together.

Next is the absolute worst part of this: pin the belly patch to the body. The bottom of
the patch should sit between rounds 15&16 of the body.
The top of the belly patch should sit between rounds 8&9 of the head.

I had to use T-pins to pin mine (because the regular pins were way too small). I just
stretched the piece out a bit, lined up the bottom & pinned it in place. Then I counted
5-6 stitches up each of the sides, lined it up with the body & placed T-pins. Some of
them ended up falling out when I sewed it.

Rows 27 & 28 of the belly patch are the neck, the rows after that are all sewed to the
head.

Work around the posts of the stitches on the border when sewing - it will give you a
waaaay neater look than whip stitching it on. Just take your time - it sucks, but it’ll be
okay :) The picture below is from a snorlax I made a couple years ago - he was much
smaller, but should give you an idea of what it should look like.
Now that the painful part is over - onto the rest!

Pin the ears to the head. They should sit between rounds 5&6, to between rounds 11&12
of the head.

Before the ears are fully sewed on, add stuffing to them.

Since my dog’s been using this as his cuddle buddy, there’s a bunch of fur on the
pictures below. That’s alright though, he’s happy & I’m happy that he’s enjoying it.
Next up, pin the arms to the sides of the body.

You’ll notice on the arms that there are 6 stitches at the top of the arms (where
they’ve been fasted off) AND 6 stitches at the bottoms of the arms (left over from
when the arm switched from working in rounds to working in rows).
These two sets of 6 stitches need to be lined up - so the top six stitches will be pinned
to the last round of the body (near the head), & the bottom six stitches will be pinned
between rounds 28&29 of the body.
Start sewing the arms on - the sides of the rows on the arms should be sewed kind of
in a straight line down the side of the body.

When you’re close to finished sewing each of the arms on, add stuffing so that the
row part of the arm isn’t flat. It should kind of blend in with the bottom part of the
arm/hand. Below is a picture of the side of the arm/view from the front of the snorlax.
Again, sewing around the posts of the stitches on the foot pad. None of those messy
looking whip stitches.

Sew the feet to the body - they should be angled kind of outwards. The bottoms of
the feet should sit between rounds 12&13 of the body. The tops of the feet should sit
between rounds 19&20 of the body.

Next up, sew 3 of each of the foot claws to the feet. You can add a little bit of stuffing
to them if you want, it’s really up to you. They should sit between rounds 7&8 to
between rounds 8&9 of the feet.
Using a piece of black yarn, embroider the eyes & mouth on the head part of the belly
patch. You can VERY carefully use a tiny bit of fabric glue to make the eyes a bit
rounder.

Cut two little triangles out of white felt for the teeth.

Glue the teeth near the mouth. The top parts of the little triangles should point
upwards.
If you made it this far - congratulations, you’re finished! Hopefully your arms don’t hurt
as much as mine did.

A bunch of finished pictures (with much less dog fur on them) are below:
