Our latest creation is a mini Harry Potter Quidditch Amigurumi! He’s approximately half the height of our other Harry Potter pattern and super cute with his broomstick, golden snitch and Quidditch robes! He’s quite quick to make and I am definitely considering making more toys this size (I’m thinking they would look great on my Christmas tree this year!) – let me know in the comments below which size you prefer. If you would like to be updated every time I post a new pattern please subscribe to my blog (on the right hand side of the screen on desktop, or at the bottom of the page on mobile devices). Thank you all so much for your support and please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions – I love hearing from you all! There are many more Harry Potter crochet patterns on my site, and other mini Harry Potter crochet patterns too, along with other amigurumi patterns.
If there are any characters from pop culture that you would love to see a free pattern for, please leave a comment below – we’ll do our best! In the mean time, you can check out my other free Amigurumi Patterns
FINISHED SIZE:
Size depends on hook and yarn weight. The following are a guide to sizes, however you can use any yarn weight as long as you use a hook small enough to give the right tension (at least two sizes smaller than the recommended hook size for that yarn).
- 2.75 mm hook and dk/light worsted weight yarn – 16 cm/6.3 in
- 3.00 mm hook and dk/light worsted weight yarn – 23 cm/9 in
- 3.00 mm hook and worsted weight yarn – 24 cm/9.5 in
MATERIALS:
- Yarn in black, flesh, light brown, dark brown, red, yellow and white
- Crochet hook
- Safety eyes (can be embroidered)
- Glasses (can be embroidered)
- Stuffing
You can use any yarn and crochet hook combination that gives you good tension. Normally this would be a hook around two sizes smaller than that recommended on the yarn label. For mini Harry I used a 2.75 mm hook with 8ply/DK/Light Worsted Weight acrylic yarn.
