Notes
1- I made this amigurumi doll using the “Yarn Under Single Crochet” technique. This technique makes the stitches tighter and appears more aligned.
2- Use the ultimate finish to close up the amigurumi.
3- Crochet in continuous rounds. Do not join at the end of each round.
4- Use a running stitch marker to keep your place when crocheting in rounds.
5- Optional: I used the invisible increase and invisible decrease for a nicer finish.
6- Optional: I made a version using the half-color changing technique (see the above photos for reference).
7- Final Measurements: 10 cm (approx. 4 inches) not including the antennas
8- Change to a different yarn weight/category and appropriate hook size for this project to make it bigger/smaller.
9- The arms and wings are crocheted onto the body so there’s no sewing involved. Follow the order of the pattern and make the arms and wings before making the body and head.

Rounds 26 and 27, pull up a loop of brown yarn, yarn over, and make the first chain.
Slst down the chain in the back bumps of the chain. Cut and fasten off.
Do the same thing for the second antenna, but insert the hook closer to
the crown of the head between rounds 27 and 28 so that the antennas
would face the same direction when finished.
BLUSH (OPTIONAL)
Use pink yarn and embroider some pink for blush on the amigurumi bee under the eyes.
