Hey everyone! Today, I’m super excited to share with you a crochet pattern that’s truly out of this world – a moon pattern. It’s been a hot minute since we’ve ventured into the cosmic realms with our crochet (space patterns are quite the rarity and don’t show up too often), so I figured it’s high time we add some celestial charm to our collection.
Crafting this amigurumi moon will be a piece of cake – we won’t even be needing to work any decreases, just sticking to the magical ring, single crochet (sc), and increases (inc). Then, we’ll stuff it to bring it to full. The finishing touch? Embroidering those adorable closed eyes, and voila, your very own moon is ready to shine.
If you’re craving more space-inspired patterns, be sure to rocket over to our cosmic category for an astronomical amount of inspiration.
