No-Sew Summer Ice Cream Amigurumi Pattern

Pattern Level: Beginner

Finished Product Height: 8 cm

Note: Gauging is not important for most amigurumi. Your finished product will vary depending on yarn weight and hook size. This pattern is worked in continuous rounds unless specified otherwise.

Materials

Hook 2.25 mm (US Size B) - I recommend Clover crochet hook
Yarn weight: Fingering 1 - I recommend Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/4
Yarn colors
- Any Color (C) (for ice cream)
- Toffee (T)
Polyester filling
Stitch Marker
Sewing/multipurpose scissors

Extra Material: If you’d like to make this a keychain, make sure to attached the keychain during round 1. One way is to crochet a chain and attach it in the center of the magic ring of Ice Cream round 1. Make sure to secure with a tight knot. You can make this chain longer to make it the keychain or keep It short to attach a metal keychain on it. If you’d like to see a tutorial or blog post about it, comment below!

Instructions

Instructions for Bobble Stitch

*Note: This will be worked in front loops only.

YO, insert hook into front loop of next stitch and pull up a loop the same height as the first YO (try to keep loops loose so that the "bobble" is puffier), YO and pull through both loops. Repeat these steps TWO more times in the same stitch. To finish the bobble stitch, YO and pull through all four loops on hook (see photos C-H).

Ice Cream

NOTE: If you'd like to make this into a keychain, see tips.

Start with ice cream color C;

Rnd 1. Sc 6 in MR [6]

Rnd 2. (Inc) x 6 [12]

Rnd 3. (Sc 1, inc) x 6 [18]

Rnd 4. (Sc 1, inc, sc 1) x 6 [24]

Rnd 5. (Sc 3, inc) x 6 [30]

Rnd 6. (Sc 2, inc, sc 2) x 6 [36]

Rnd 7-11. Sc around [36] (5 rounds total)

Rnd 12. (Sc 2, dec, sc 2) x 6 [30]

Front Rnd 13. *FRONT LOOPS ONLY { FLO: (sc 1 and hdc 1 in ONE ST, BS 1, hdc 1) } x 10 [40] (see photos A-J)

To finish off the ice cream, sl st and ch 2. Cut yarn (see photos K-N).

Make sure all of the bobbles are puffing outwards (see photo M).

CONE

Now change to color T;

Make a knot at the tail of the new yarn.

Back Rnd 13. Your hook should still have the loop of the second chain of the previous yarn on it (see photo A). Now insert hook through the BACK LOOP of the first stitch of round 12 (see photo A). Pull up a loop in the new color T yarn. Now you have two loops on hook (see photo B). YO with color T yarn and pull through both loops to complete a single crochet (see photos D, E). Keep the tail of the previous yarn tucked under the stitches as you go to secure it. Single crochet as usual in the back loops only all the way around. You should have a total of 30 sc in the round (See photo H).

*Note: For the rest of the rounds, you will be alternating stitches in both loops (regular stitch) and back loops as indicated.

Stuff as you go.

Rnd 14. (sc 1, { BLO: sc 2 }) x 10 [30] (see photos I-L)

Rnd 15. ( (Sc 1, { BLO: sc 2 } ) x 2, sc 1, { BLO: sc 1, dec } ) x 3 [27] (see photos M-P on how to decrease in back loops only)

Rnd 16. (sc 1, { BLO: sc 2 }) x 9 [27]

Rnd 17. ( (Sc 1, { BLO: sc 2 }) x 2, sc 1, { BLO: dec } ) x 3 [24]

All finished!

What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Too many to decide! I think I tend to go for the ones with beautiful colors.
