7 steps to make amigurumi designs BIGGER (without bulky yarn!)

[@between_forest__and_sea6658]

This video was heaven-sent!! I found a tutorial on how to make a super cute strawberry cow, but looking at the video again, I realized my cow wouldn't come out very big, and I like a nice, big, cuddly plush. So now I'll be able to make my cow bigger using the yarn I already bought for the project! Thank you so much for making and posting this video, you've saved me a massive headache and lots of experimentation!! 💙💙💙

[@littlepicasso1]

Omg I had the exact problem😢

[@acd9920]

same!! i couldn’t find a bigger crochet cow patter that is still cute

[@TheLyssabeautiful]

So how are yall figuring this out for other patterns? For example one mins she’s decreasing twice but then the next for example when she shows the body she only doubled up the number of single crochet but then the decrease is still one? I know a lot of you think I sound stupid but I think this is explained for more able bodied ppl and those who have learning disabilities or austic adhd … this left so many unanswered questions so if you can explain that would be helpful ❤️❤️ oh and I’m not saying she did this on purpose just think a lot of ppl make videos like this just forgetting to add extra detail just in case

[@arctaex]

Were you actually able to apply this method successfully, though? I'm genuinely curious.

[@TrippNBalz]

Brilliant! I often tweek patterns but would never consider it my own after. I agree with you 100% on that

[@anniemoon350]

I just want to say I'm not even done with this video and already it's proving to be probably the best, most well explained crochet explanation video I've ever seen. Especially when it comes to visualizing the stitches which is by far my greatest challenge! THANK YOU!!

I'm so glad I remembered this video when I needed it most. I'm making a gift for someone and the pattern I'm using is one I had already adapted from something else but wasn't large enough for what I had planned, I've just gone step by step with your video to size it all up

YES THANK YOU! I am from Europe and bigger yarn is such a pain to get so this tutorial is a saving grace!

[@Faerie-Realm]

This video was useful for showing me how to lay out my pattern and know how to increase it and decrease the amount of stitches. The math and how to calculate the changes of increases/decreases however.... I could not follow. Thankfully found another video that helped with that, but I appreciate this video for setting the groundwork for me.

[@animewolf16]

I wish I would have found your channel and this video sooner! I have been crocheting for about 5-6 years now. I have never made my own pattern from scratch as most of my projects I was able to find a pattern for for free or for purchase online. That was until I wanted to make a large fish prop for a costume for my husband. I couldn't find anything that fit what I wanted to make so I found a simple pattern that I tried to upscale. It took forever with guesstimating the math, making the mock up, frogging that and then making the final project with all of the details. There were a couple of years between the mock up and finishing the final fish but it did finally get done this year! This video would have made the upscaling so much easier or any of the previous videos in this series about making my own pattern would have been such a big help. I'm glad I have these resources now and look forward to seeing more of your content.

[@animewolf16]

@@bluetenpollen Looking over your sample pattern, I think I see where you may have been having trouble. My sticking points were rows 3 and 6. In the video, she talks about doubling the lines. Though it is sort of shown in the video, it's not directly stated that she is doubling the contents of the line. If there are repeating instructions, you double what is inside the parentheses, but not the number of times you repeat the instruction. I also thought about what she said about continuous growth vs sculpting. Not knowing what your final project is (if I had to guess, this particular part may be a leg or muzzle but I don't know of course) it could go either way so I did a mock up of the original and what I tested. Doing a more stark change and then doing single crochets around in the next row to "fill the gaps" seemed to mimic the original shape best so here is what I came up with. R1. MR 6sc (6) R2. 6 inc (12) R3. 6x (sc, inc) (18) R4. 6x (2sc, inc) (24) R5. 24 sc R6. 3x (6sc, 2inc) (30) R7.-R11. 30 sc (5 rows of 30) R12. 3x (8sc, 2inc) (36) A lot of experimenting in crochet is about trying something, undoing/frogging it, doing it again, frogging again. Over and over until you get what you're looking for. I couldn't tell on paper whether to do a gradual increase or the stark increase until I put hook to yarn for mock ups.The other thought I had regarding continuous growth was that you had an increase of 3 stitches from row 2-3 so to get an increase of 6 you could do something like 3x (7sc, inc) (27) for R5 and 3x (8sc, inc) (30) for R6. Same concept for rows 11 and 12. This is still an increase of 6 stitches but it's over the course of 2 rows instead of 1 like how I have it above. I encourage you to try both and see which you like more and/or which better fits your project. I hope this helps. Happy crocheting! Alt Option Continuous Growth R5. 3x (7sc, inc) (27) R6. 3x (8sc, inc) (30) ... R11. 3x (9sc, inc) (33) R12. 3x (10sc, inc) (36)

I have been wanting to do this like forever! I don’t particularly like making tiny or small projects. I like mine 10-12 inches, but most patterns are too small for my liking.

I'm the same way!! I tend to only use worsted weight yarn and a because it's cheapest but the projects are often only big with chunky yarn so I caved an just started making my own big worsted weight amigurumi 14-18ish inches🤧 while this comment is a year old i definitely recommend this nice dinosaur pattern that's made to be big with worsted weight yarn, it's the Timothy the dino one❤

I am *SUPER* thrilled to have found you!!! I have only been crocheting for a few years. I am a highly visual learner (thank you for KZbin), so reading patterns is difficult for me. But, I am slowly getting the hang of it. I had bought a few of your *amazing* patterns a short while ago. I have trouble using smaller hooks (def not bc of age or anything like that, they just hurt/cramp my hands, lol!), so making cool GIANT amigurumi is on the top of my list :) Thank you for showing us how to do this xx .....and the other way to make things bigger is the way that I told you about how to triple any yarn - I love this method too but it isn't as exact as your calculations - much, much better ;)

hi!, can you please elaborate and tell me how can i double up the size? i really cannot understand this yt video

[@2woso]

Hi, I have just startet at a cat, just filling the palm of my hand. A bit to tiny for my tast. In a facebook site I got the advices thats the normal, change /doble the yarn and upsize needle. But this will be another cat! I have to yarns working with, a thin cotton and a thinner silk fluffy added yarn. To double this will not be nice and just clutter. Though about it for a while and work out this way to do the pattern, and that magic rings can't double, thats a big hole to tighten. So doing this you have to use your mind as well. . And I wonder all the way, will this work? ? And now I have proof that the cat will be at a size I like, I will give the facebook site this advice too! And of course the pattern maker will have the credit! (I just change the numbers, I did not make the pattern. )🤩🐈‍⬛

[@MikuoCosplayer]

I just wanted to say that this video has been so helpful! I bought a pattern for a dog loaf amigurumi. It was smaller than I wanted, so I thought I would double the size. I followed this video which was extremely helpful! I noticed on my pattern that there were some things that shouldn't be doubled (i.e., you're essentially making a square in the round, so you wouldn't double 4 to 8 in terms of repeating the "working up" of the square, otherwise you'd get an octagon). Anyway, lots of trial and error, but this video is amazing. Thank you so much!

[@taylor-b]

I'm trying so hard to make this make sense lol. My current pattern is: R1: 6 sc Magic loop (6) R2: inc x 6 (12) R3: [sc, inc] x6 (18) R4: [inc, 2 sc] x6 (24) R5: [5 sc, inc] x4 (28) To make it larger, would my new pattern be?: R1: 6 sc Magic loop (6) R2: 12 sc (12) R3: 12 sc (12) R4: inc x 12 (24) R5: inc x 12 (24) R6: [2 sc, 2 inc] x6 (36) R7: [2 sc, 2 inc] x6 (36) R8: [2 inc, 4 sc] x 6 (48) R9: [2 inc, 4 sc] x 6 (48) It seems like you're doubling each row and then doing it twice? But I think the beginning/magic loop (R1 and R2) are really throwing me off.

[@MitsueOokami]

It seems you made the error she mentioned at 3:39 which won't make a smooth transition. rather than filling up the missing rows with repeated amount of stitches [12 -> *X* -> 24 = 12 -> *12* -> 24], you calculate the transition based on the amount of increments your pattern grows. Your pattern grows in increments of 6 for the most part, meaning every row where the stitch amount increases, it does so by 6 stitches added as increases (6 -> (+6) 12 -> (+6) 18 and so on. so the bigger pattern would go [12 -> *X* -> 24 = 12 -> *18* -> 24] instead! your pattern would look something like this, assuming that the order between single crochets and increases switch so they offset each other to avoid the hexagon shape, we alternate their order accordingly on the new pattern R1. 6 magic ring R2. 6[inc] (12) R3. 6[sc, inc] (18) R4. 6[inc, 2sc] (24) R5. 6[3sc, inc] (30) R6. 6[inc, 4sc] (36) R7. 6[5sc, inc] (42) R8. 6[inc, 6sc] (48)* R9. 4[10sc, inc] (52) R10. 4[inc, 12sc] (56) *here you can see that we get an increment of 4 between rows 4-5 of the original so on the bigger pattern we get 8 increases, going from 48st to 56st, for a smooth transition we divide this amount in half, adding 4 increases on the missing row nine (making it 52 stitches) and the other four on row 10, achieving our 56 stitches by the end of row 10.

[@kermitsewerslide7548]

I found this through the crochet patterns subreddit and this is insane, I was so desperate I tried designing my own pattern at his point. I do agree with it still being the original creator's content, so it would be correct to credit the original creator and then just tag your channel saying people used this video to make the design bigger. I think that's what I'd do? I don't know if it's wrong though ;-;

[@me.clxire]

I agree with you. Just because you make the pattern bigger/smaller doesn't mean you created how the amigurmi looks or the different characteristics of it. Maybe you added or took away rows but that doesn't change the fact that it's still the same pattern

There are other things I suck at (readin music, for example or spacial awareness). But math for me is like. The epitome of everything hard and complicated. And you made a video where math is actually *understandable* for me. Like I JUST USED IT!!! I MADE SOMETHING BIGGER! its not a complicated pattern, just some increases and decreases to create basically a very smooth dumpling but like. I did it!!! And I didnt cry like I usually do with math and it was really easy!!!! The way you illustrated stuff as well as talk about it is amazing (and the choice of a pattern to work with in the video is also good, because it has both simple shapes and smth more complicated and it really shows how to do this properly). I dont like bulky yarn for amigurumis and this is just. So cool

This means a lot to me, I'm happy I could help :) ❤️

[@charlottesweb2104]

This is super cool! Could you do the same process again to the pattern you just made bigger so it ends up giant or would that mess up the shape of it?

[@artareon]

I'm a bit late but I'm sure you can just quadruple it from the start using her method instead of doing this twice

[@charleybear0330]

Thank you so much for this easy to follow guide! I'm now going to make the giant frog of my dreams 😂

[@codelyo_ko9123]

hey, i got an amigurumi pattern with bobble stitches, do you just make 2 BO instead of 1? or is there another tip to make it twice bigger?

[@Verdi.and.violet]

Omg, this is so helpful!! Thank you for breaking this down! Awesome!

[@Karma_Raven_Marie]

Thank You so much for this!

[@fishiewkwwkwkw]

what if i wana make the pattern even bigger?? like maybe almost a life sized plush, will i still multiply the rest of the pattern with a bigger number like maybe 6-7?? if i do multiply with a bigger number like 6 or 8 then will i still start with a 6 crochet magic circle???

[@Lunaskylette]

Is there a way to make it 1.5 times larger without changing yarn size or double yarns???

[@ashleyyoung191]

Would I do this same thing if I was sizing up a pattern 3 or 4 times the original size?

[@pawelmucko341]

Can i have some help so in this pattern original row 8 is 3sc inc repeat 6 times (30 total stiches) So is my new pattern Row 16 6sc 2inc repeat 12 and im confused here bc my total stiches in the 'new' pattern would be 120 not 60 so im unsure on what to do/ how to fix it

[@pawelmucko341]

After writing this out i have realised the problem i shouldnt double the amount of time i repeat i should only repeat the pattern 6 times not 12 for the 'new' one

[@RandomRiniGrace]

I tried calculating this on a turtle pattern I found online, and it worked pretty well for the arms, but something went wrong with the head (there was supposed to be 6 rows of sc, but only came out to 5) because when I doubled the rows, it was rows 10-14 that were supposed to be sc, but it didn't add up to six, which was wierd.
