“Natalumis” Crochet Pattern Review and Giveaway
Adorable Amigurumi Animals
Designed by Maro Akamatra
If you are looking to dip your toes into the awesome world of amigurumi crochet, the “Natalumis” collection is a great way to start. Designer Maro Akamatra has provided easy to follow written instructions, with clear photos to help you along the way.
Instructions are included for four animals – Cucu the Owl, Rory the Bear, Koxy the Frog, and Onky the Pig. There are options for using felt, or crocheting your own cheeks and eyes. Since I didn’t have any felt on hand, I just went with the crochet option, and I think they turned out lovely.
A wonderful thing about this pattern is the opportunity to have fun with colors and little details. Since I had some small firepolished beads on hand, I thought they would fit perfectly as the frog’s eyes. Charming!
These are going in my daughter’s Christmas stocking this year, and I thought they would make adorable zipper pulls for her backpack. So, I was able to find some ball chain keychain and pushed it through the crocheted fabric. It took a small amount of wiggling, but I was able to push it on through.

Love the little Natalumis characters.
I would do cucu the owl because I am in love with all owls patterns.
I would make the teddy bear.
Twould be a hard decision which to make first – they are all so cute!
I’m thinking my granddaughter might enjoy a collection of these little cuties!
