Supplies Needed
Here are the supplies recommended by the tutor if you want to get the same results both in colour and shape for a crochet snoopy keychain:
- Cotton/acrylic or sports yarn (5ply) in white (50g), black, red, pink
- 2.5mm crochet hook (this size is relatively smaller)
- 5mm plastic eyes
- Stuffing material like polyester fiberfill.
- Darning needle, glue, scissors.
Note: Both cotton and acrylic yarns are great choices for crochet Snoopy amigurumi because they offer several benefits.
Cotton yarn is durable and holds its shape well, making it ideal for creating detailed and structured amigurumi figures. Its smooth texture also makes it easier to work with, especially for tight stitches.
Acrylic yarn, on the other hand, is soft, affordable, and comes in a wide range of colours. It’s also easy to care for, as it’s machine washable and dries quickly.
Usually, Milk Cotton yarn and Wooly acrylic yarn are preferred.
