Tutor's Suggestions
-
Standing Stability: Know that the duck might find it hard to stand on its own. Add some weight (such as small pebbles or rice in a secure pouch) to the bottom of the body if you plan to display it on a desk.
-
Keychains: If you plan to use the duck as a keychain, you do not need to add extra weight.
-
Hat Variation: The tutor suggests creating a version with a beanie by changing the yarn color to white before starting the head increases (Round 12) and then switching to a green color for the subsequent rows (starting at Round 13).
Special Features:
- The primary feature is the "no-sew" body construction, meaning you crochet the body, neck, and head as a single, continuous piece, minimizing assembly time. The pattern also includes a clever technique using slip stitches to create the distinct neck definition.
With its mix of sweetness, versatility, and charm, this pattern delivers a delightful result that warms any environment.
Conclusion
You have successfully created your charming no-sew rubber duck! By mastering the seamless body construction and the tiny beak detail, you now hold a complete, cuddly Amigurumi toy.
Final Tip
When closing the final opening of the head, use the Invisible Decrease method for all decrease rounds, and when you finally draw the closing tail through the remaining loops, only insert the needle into the front loop of each stitch. This technique ensures the smallest, neatest possible closure for your plushie's head.
