GIANT Chubby Dino TUTORIAL | Crochet Amigurumi Tutorial | Crochet Plushie Pattern | Step by Step

[@reigningcharmz]

Hi friends! I've made a small error. R9 of the tail should end in 46 as the final stitch count, not 47. Sorry about that!

[@Jade-ms6oy]

Does final stitch count mean that’s how many stitches you just did or how many stitches is in the entire project. Also how do I know when to increase and decrease. Like is it every one? Every other? Every 4? Sorry I’m a beginner 😂

[@reigningcharmz]

@@Jade-ms6oy no worries! So final stitch count is the final count at the end of that row. And if anything is in parenthesis followed by a number, then you repeat that that many times. For example: (sc, inc) x 6 means you do one single crochet in one stitch, then increase in the next and repeat that pattern 6 times. Same goes for decrease. There should be a number letting you know how many to do, and if not specified, then it’s done till the end of the round. You can also check out this video on how to read patterns! That might help☺️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/houbpoloYr9gh8ksi=cLWAlPvKZ6GL9k7f

[@brookiez1019]

I’m almost done making this and I ripped out a whole row, thinking I had it wrong on R9 of the tail. But I believe there is a typo. You have “(SC, Inc) x 15, SC (47)” but no matter how many time I counted there were only 46 stitches for me. AND then I counted the pattern of R9 which only adds up to 46, however you have 47. Thought I’d let you know in case you wanted to pin a comment or add it to the description as I couldn’t find anything about it in the comments or description to confirm my suspicion. Thank you for the wonderful tutorial though, it’s very good! 😊

[@brookiez1019]

I believe there is a typo in R5 of the spike as well. R4 ends with 12 stitches but then R5 you have “(SC, Inc) x 6, SC (18)” but that would be 19 stitches, so I think the SC at the end is not suppose to be there. Please let me know if I’m just wrong and making a fool of myself, I’m still a beginner! 😅

[@reigningcharmz]

Oh goodness! It’s entirely possible it’s a typo! Thank you for letting me know. I’ll be sure to correct it☺️

[@rachaelbradley9182]

Omg I was on first row of decreasing for finishing the head and I thought you meant I had to repeat 18 sc then decrease 9 times. I was about to give up until I watched over the video and figured it out! Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial! This is the first stuffie I actually committed to and finished it! My jumbo Dino came out great and I hope u can make more tutorials/patterns like this!

[@Smile_4ever]

Helloo I have a question... If I use a hook 15mm instead of 10mm with the same yarn as you, will it make any difference? LOVE UR JOB 💖 (Pls reply to me quickly if u can 💜)

[@reigningcharmz]

If you’re using the same size yarn I’m using in my pattern, then using a 15mm hook may cause gaps to show up. It’s best to pair the 15mm hook with a thicker yarn if you want to use it ☺️

[@rosemary8911]

i also did a green body with white spikes! love it!❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you so much! I loved it! My little brother's gonna love it!💛

[@Loveyoubaby0323]

Hello, i tried your dino pattern and it turns out very beautiful. I really love all your designs and styles …can you post more on giant amirugumi pls❤

[@qxlazybum]

hello i love this pattern :)) but I think there's a mistake in R5 of the big spikes coz there should not be the extra sc [(sc-1, inc-2)*6 = 18] yea anyways thanks for the pattern my dino came out really cute

[@ninapeters1919]

Thank you! I must make this one!

[@Cass.Cass18]

Hi. For row 21 I ended up with 32 stitches and I followed you to the t. How does that happen?

[@user-fd4ni5rn3s]

I'm genuinely so confused. I'm following the pattern correctly but everytime I'm done 'with a roW i end up with too many stiches before my stich marker!

[@promiseau]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! It was so easy to follow even for a somewhat beginner like myself!

[@virg.d]

Hello!! Is it ok If I do this with 8mm hook instead of 10mm??? (please reply quickly 🙏)

[@reigningcharmz]

Yes! Just be aware it’ll come out smaller than mine☺️

[@virg.d]

​@@reigningcharmzthank you 😊

[@rosemary8911]

yea i ended up using a 5.5 mm and it was still pretty big!

[@vaal4325]

hello!! can I ask how many grams od dacrons (stuffing) do you use?

[@Classic_Clara]

I’ve been waiting for this! 😆

[@nikkiteahouse]

can't wait to make this! should we stuff the spikes?

[@reigningcharmz]

Great question! They don’t need to be stuffed☺️

[@SharenMyYarn]

When is approximate size of yours? I know tension can make a difference for each crocheter, but want to have idea of size. Thank you.

Good question! He’s 16 inches tall and 10 inches wide when I make him with the hook and yarn listed in the materials☺️

[@hagancuster8788]

thank you so much for the tutorial, I was wondering how many skeins of yarn you used on the whole dino because i want to use the same yarn but don't know how much to buy

[@reigningcharmz]

2 of the pink and one of the purple!☺️

[@MapleSyrupQueen]

Amazing tutorial tysm

[@gorillagamer23]

You should make tut for a smaller one like that pls and thanks for making this pattern ♥️

[@Kaeechi]

Do u think this pattern will work with only 200 yard worth of yarn? I have bigger hooks so bayme that will help? Lmk❤

[@reigningcharmz]

I think you may need a bit more for the body! You could always try and see☺️

[@urgurl_bay172]

If I used the same kind of yarn with a 11.5 mm hook would it be bigger

[@daisymercerhembury3554]

it would be bigger but the stitches might also be bigger so you might be able to see through the stitches and they wont be as tight

[@reigningcharmz]

Yes! What daisy said is what may happen ☺️

[@urgurl_bay172]

Thanks guys

[@user-oq3ho3bd9f]

Help me NOW R18 it says I need to end up with 45 stitches and I have only 35 😠😭 DO I restart after quite alot of work?😅

[@PikolGuy]

I'm making this rn and I am going to sleep with it tomorrow

[@craftybarncat]

Is there a written pattern for the jumbo dino? ❤

[@reigningcharmz]

There is here in my original video in the description box!☺ kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnWYgJ-nhpykh9Esi=G1moLUWTdKZrAuT7

[@theresnospecificwaytosaykyl]

Okay so I was like on r19 and I had to frog the whole thing because the top of the head was pointy. But also, you have a 10mm hook, I have a 9mm hook and mine looks way bigger, I got the exact same yarn too. I’m using a 5.5mm but it’s smaller than yours, and fits the yarn perfectly, will that affect the size? Or should I get a different hook?

[@reigningcharmz]

@@theresnospecificwaytosaykyl the size difference might occur if your tension is more loose than mine. I think I crochet with a tighter tension which I need to work on hahaha If you want a Dino that’s going to be big and jumbo, you’ll want to use a weight 6-7 bulky yarn, with a 9-10mm hook. Usually you go two sizes down on hook size from the recommended hook size on the yarn. Hope this helps!

[@theresnospecificwaytosaykyl]

@@reigningcharmz thank you! I got the exact same yarn you used in the video, but I don’t have a 10mm hook like you, i have a 9mm but it’s seems really big, bigger than your 10mm, should I still try it?

[@reigningcharmz]

@@theresnospecificwaytosaykyl sure! worst case, you will have an extra big dino lol

[@theresnospecificwaytosaykyl]

@@reigningcharmz worst case I run out of yarn 😔 I started it and so far my decreases are a little crinkly but thank you so much! You inspire me a lot :D

[@ayanadixon4763]

I saw a tip in a short that said to see how many stitches are in round 2, and put that many stitches in a magic ring to start the project. Then follow the rest of the pattern. Skipping round 1 eliminates the point. Hope that helps.

[@rebeccadominguiano3626]

Hi I have a question! How did you even come up with this cute plush???? What inspired you??

[@reigningcharmz]

In the description I mention that I was inspired by StudioPhoebe22’s free little chubby Dino pattern she has on Instagram ☺️ I wanted to make a massive version to bring people in to my booths at craft markets, so I made the jumbo Dino you see here☺️

I also don’t know what the abbreviations mean lol can you tell I’m a beginner? 😂

[@Molly-ue6ej]

When you were on row 39 I counted and only had 30 when did I go wrong😅

[@darlamarquez5438]

On row 3 are you single crocheting the first stitch then doing increasing after that stitch ? The parentheses always throw me off lol

[@darlamarquez5438]

Also it says increase and do it 6 times making 24 stitches , but you continue to the last marking that would be more than 24 stitches wouldn’t it ??

[@reigningcharmz]

@@darlamarquez5438 hi! so yes, for R3 you will do one single crochet in the first stitch and increase in the next, and repeat that pattern all the way around. You should have 18 stitches at the end of R3. At the end of R4 you will have 24. Hope this helps!☺

[@samyaresby6815]

How much yarn did you use

[@TheJesusChristLover123]

I made it and was fine with a 100g ball of 5 mm yarn so if you have 1 ball that should be fine with the main colour, as for the 2nd you don’t need too much

[@rachelpatton3905]

Hello, don't know if I am missing something or not but do you have the chapter for the legs?

[@gabrielamendez1060]

I want a smaller version, can you tell me how to do it pls?

[@ayanadixon4763]

You can use a thinner yarn and a smaller hook. Big Twist Baby Bear yarn would make a smaller version, especially with a 4 or 5mm hook.
