Amigurumi Raindrop Crochet Pattern

This amigurumi raindrop crochet pattern is sure to make you smile. A fun project to keep the Winter blues at bay.

Two plush crocheted raindrops, one blue and one pale purple, leaning together against a white background.

We’ve been having a lot or rain recently which inspired this cute kawaii raindrop.

I had some Bernat Baby Blanket yarn sitting in my stash and this was a good way to use it up. The super bulky yarn makes it come together really quickly and it’s the perfect cuddle size.

This amigurumi raindrop is worked from the top down and the only sewing required is for attaching the eyes.

Finished Size

The finished raindrop measures approximately 11″ (28cm) tall. Size may vary depending on tension and materials used.

Gauge

Gauge is not important in this pattern. Use a hook size to match your chosen yarn. Make sure that your stitches are tight enough to prevent stuffing showing through and adjust hook size if necessary.

Notes

  • Pieces are worked in a continuous spiral starting with a magic ring unless otherwise specified. Mark the first stitch of each round with a removable stitch marker.

In white worsted weight yarn, make 11 surface slip stitches between R3 and R4. Knot the ends behind the eye and trim.

Sew the eyes on over R16 and R19, approximately 4 sts apart. Using a small amount of pink worsted weight yarn, embroider cheeks just under and to the side of each eye. I embroidered each cheek over 2 sts and went over it 5 times to get my desired thickness.
