Izuku Midoriya Crochet Detailed Pattern Instructions

Optional Eye Preparation: Lightly sand the surface of the safety eyes, then cover with a layer of white acrylic paint. Once dry, paint a layer of mint green color (mix equal parts light blue and light green). If one coat isn’t sufficient, add another layer.

Head Construction (Work from bottom to top in Nude color):

  1. 8 pb in magic ring [8]
  2. 8 increases [16]
  3. to 7. 5 rounds of 16 pb [16]
  4. Work in BLO: (2 increases, 2 pb) x4 [24]
  5. 1 pb, (2 increases, 4 pb) x3, 2 increases, 3 pb [32]
  6. 2 pb, (2 increases, 6 pb) x3, 2 increases, 4 pb [40]
  7. to 21. 11 rounds of 40 pb [40]

Insert safety eyes between rounds 15-16, separated by 6 stitches. For reference, position the eyes between stitches 16-17 and 22-23, using the 6 stitches of separation between increases from round 10 as a guide.

Rounds 1 to 7 create the space for inserting the amigurumi’s neck into the head. Push inward to create the opening.

  1. (3 pb, 1 decrease) x8 [32]
  2. (2 pb, 1 decrease) x8 [24]

Begin stuffing before continuing with the decreases. Use a crochet hook or stick inserted in the neck opening to maintain the shape.

  1. (1 pb, 1 decrease) x8 [16]

Finish stuffing until the piece is firm.

  1. 8 decreases [8]

Cut yarn, leaving enough to close by pulling the front loops of each stitch, then hide the yarn in the fabric.

Nose: With Nude color yarn, horizontally go through the two central stitches between rounds 13-14, passing a strand and wrapping the yarn 6-8 times.

Eyes: Create a white border below the safety eyes and use black yarn to create eyelashes with a border above the eyes.

Ears: In Nude color, in a magic ring work 4 pb, close and leave yarn for sewing. Attach 4 stitches away from the eyes, taking two vertical stitches from rounds 14 and 15.
