Banana Amigurumi

A quick and adorable no-sew amigurumi banana pattern, perfect for beginners! This free crochet pattern works up in under an hour and includes a full video tutorial to guide you through every step. Make a mini 3 inch (8 cm) keychain using sport weight cotton yarn and a 2.5 mm hook, or size up with chunky yarn for a soft 7 inch (18 cm) plushie. Written in U.S. crochet terms using basic stitches (single crochet, increase, decrease), this pattern is a great stash-busting project and makes a fun handmade gift, keychain, or bag charm. No sewing required — the banana is worked in one continuous piece and closed with a simple technique, making it ideal for beginner amigurumi crocheters. The free pattern on my blog is available in English and Dutch. The PDF that you can buy here is available in English, Dutch, French and German
