How To Crochet Eyes For Amigurumi Dolls | Crochet Yarn Eyes | Simple Pattern For Yarn Eyes

I’m in the process of redesigning my crochet elephant lovey and writing up all the instructions for the pattern. As I started reviewing my notes for how I crocheted the eyes, I couldn’t really understand I made them. The instructions were not working out the way I expected, and I also thought it might be confusing for crocheters to follow along. So, I decided to start over.
After crocheting the first eye, I thought it might be a good opportunity to film a tutorial as I crocheted the second eye. So I did and I’m sharing my pattern for these yarn eyes with you in this amigurumi tutorial. You can find a more beginning friendly pattern for yarn eyes in this tutorial: • Crochet Yarn Eyes For ...

I like yarn eyes, these are great, thanks!

[@patternsbypatsy]

I'll need to create more patterns because I think yarn eyes are becoming a thing 🤔😊

[@diannalynnYT]

Saved so I'll be all set next project that needs eyes. Thanks!!

[@patternsbypatsy]

I'll be working on another design once I finish the elephant lovey 😃

[@jenreeves7684]

Thank you, they are great eyes 🎉

[@patternsbypatsy]

Happy to hear you like them. Thanks for leaving a comment!😊

[@susanhylton267]

How do we make the eye more pointed? I’m making a dragon and I don’t think round would work!

[@patternsbypatsy]

I think the shape for a dragon eye would be completely different from these, but you can try changing the white highlight to more of a cat eye. So taking the white yarn all the way across the black area.
