Crochet Capybara Burger Amigurumi Pattern

Materials Needed:

• Four colors of yarn (including dark beige for the body, green for lettuce, and red for the tomato)
• 2.5 mm crochet hook
• Yarn needle
• Scissors
• Stuffing
• Black thread
• Optional: blush and eye shadow

Pattern Instructions:

Body of the Capybara:

1. Start with a Magic Ring:
   • Make 6 single crochets (SC) into the magic ring.
   • Tighten the loop and slip stitch into the first SC to close the round.
2. Round 2:
   • Increase in each stitch around (2 SC in each stitch). You should have 12 stitches at the end.
   • Slip stitch into the first SC, chain 1.
   • 
3. Round 3:
   • (SC, Increase) Repeat around. This means 1 SC in the first stitch, 2 SC in the next stitch. Repeat until the end of the round.
   • Slip stitch into the first SC, chain 1.
4. Round 4:
   • (2 SC, Increase) Repeat around, meaning 1 SC in each of the first two stitches, then 2 SC in the next stitch. Repeat.
   • Slip stitch and chain 1.
5. Round 5:
   • Work in back loops only (BLO): 1 SC in each stitch around.
   • Slip stitch into the first SC, chain 1.
6. Rounds 6-8:
   • SC in each stitch around, working in both loops.
   • Slip stitch and chain 1 at the end of each round.
7. Round 9:
   • Work in BLO again: (2 SC, Invisible Decrease) Repeat around.
     • For the decrease, insert the hook into the front loop of the first stitch and the front loop of the second stitch, yarn over, and pull through all loops.
   • Slip stitch into the first SC, chain 1.
   • Add stuffing until about halfway full.
   • 
8. Round 10:
   • (SC, Invisible Decrease) Repeat around, working in both loops for the SC and front loops for the decrease.
   • Add more stuffing, ensuring the body is well-filled but leaving space for the finishing stitches.
9. Round 11:
   • Invisible decrease in each stitch around.
   • Decrease six times.
   • Slip stitch and cut the yarn.
   • Use a yarn needle to sew the hole closed, weaving through front loops of each stitch and pulling tight. Weave in the ends.

Lettuce:

1. With Green Yarn:
   • Attach the yarn to one of the front loops remaining from Round 5 of the body.
   • Chain 1, SC in the same loop.
   • (Chain 2, SC in next front loop) Repeat all the way around.
   • Slip stitch to the first stitch and cut the yarn, weaving in the ends.

Tomato:

1. With Red Yarn:
   • Attach the yarn to one of the front loops, following the same method as the lettuce.
   • (SC 2 in first loop, SC 1 in next two loops) Repeat around.
   • Slip stitch, cut the yarn, and weave in the ends.

Face Details:

1. Facial Features with Black Thread:
   • Use a yarn needle to add eyes and nose details to the capybara.
2. Optional Face Blush and Muzzle Shading:
   • Use blush or eye shadow to add some color to the cheeks and muzzle, applying gently with a brush.
