Acorn Amigurumi
Make some cute fall décor with this free acorn amigurumi pattern! These amigurumi acorns can be used to compliment a crochet squirrel.
Hi everyone!
The acorn amigurumi is a free crochet pattern. I think this amigurumi pattern is perfect for fall décor or the finishing touches on an adorable crochet squirrel. Because the acorn is so tiny, this free crochet pattern works up in 1 hour or less.
Beginners should have no problem using this pattern since only basic crochet stitches are used. The cap is made separately from the seed and attached at the end.
