Materials Needed

Before you begin, gather the following supplies. Using the specified yarn weight and hook size will ensure your avocado turns out just like the photos—soft, sturdy, and perfectly proportioned.

• Yarn: Worsted weight cotton yarn in the following colors:
  • Avocado green (for the skin/head)
  • Light green (for the optional leaf)
  • Cream (for the belly)
  • Blush pink (for the flower crown)
  • Warm brown (for the face embroidery)
  • Small amount of dark brown (for the face details)
• Hook: 3.5mm (E) crochet hook
• Other: Stitch marker, yarn needle, fiberfill stuffing, scissors

Note on gauge: Gauge is not critical for amigurumi, but aim for tight stitches to prevent the stuffing from showing through. Approx. 4 sc x 4 rows = 1 inch.

Step-by-Step Instructions

This pattern is worked in continuous spirals unless otherwise noted. Use a stitch marker to track your rounds. The entire doll is worked as one piece from the top of the head down to the bottom, with the belly shaped through increases and decreases. Follow along carefully, and don't forget to stuff firmly at the indicated point to achieve that perfect, round belly.

Head & Body (Worked as One Piece)

Starting from the top of the avocado's head with avocado green yarn.

1. Round 1: Make a magic ring, 6 sc in ring. (6)
2. Round 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12)
3. Round 3: *Sc in next st, 2 sc in next st* repeat around. (18)
4. Round 4: *Sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st* repeat around. (24)
5. Round 5: *Sc in next 3 sts, 2 sc in next st* repeat around. (30)
6. Rounds 6-10: Sc in each st around. (30)
7. Round 11: *Sc in next 4 sts, 2 sc in next st* repeat around. (36)
8. Rounds 12-16: Sc in each st around. (36)
9. Round 17: *Sc in next 5 sts, 2 sc in next st* repeat around. (42)
10. Rounds 18-22: Sc in each st around. (42)

Belly (The Pregnant Bump)

Switch to cream yarn. The belly is created by working increases only in the first 6 stitches of each round, leaving the remaining 30 stitches unchanged. This creates a smooth, rounded bulge on one side of the body.

23. Round 23: Sc in next 6 sts, then with cream yarn, work 2 sc in each of the next 6 sts (this begins the belly bulge), sc in remaining 30 sts. (48)
24. Round 24: Sc in next 6 sts, *sc in next st, 2 sc in next st* repeat 6 times (for the belly), sc in remaining 30 sts. (54)
25. Round 25: Sc in next 6 sts, *sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st* repeat 6 times, sc in remaining 30 sts. (60)
26. Rounds 26-28: Sc in each st around. (60)
27. Round 29: Sc in next 6 sts, *sc in next 2 sts, sc2tog* repeat 6 times, sc in remaining 30 sts. (54)
28. Round 30: Sc in next 6 sts, *sc in next st, sc2tog* repeat 6 times, sc in remaining 30 sts. (48)
29. Round 31: Sc in next 6 sts, *sc2tog* repeat 6 times, sc in remaining 30 sts. (42)
30. Rounds 32-36: Sc in each st around. (42)

Shaping the Bottom

Now we'll decrease evenly around to close the bottom of the avocado.

37. Round 37: *Sc in next 5 sts, sc2tog* repeat around. (36)
38. Round 38: *Sc in next 4 sts, sc2tog* repeat around. (30)
39. Round 39: *Sc in next 3 sts, sc2tog* repeat around. (24)
40. Round 40: *Sc in next 2 sts, sc2tog* repeat around. (18)

Stuff firmly with fiberfill, shaping the belly to be round and prominent. Make sure the stuffing is distributed evenly, with extra emphasis on the cream belly section to make it pop.

41. Round 41: *Sc in next st, sc2tog* repeat around. (12)
42. Round 42: *Sc2tog* repeat around. (6)

Fasten off, leaving a long tail. Weave the tail through the front loops of the remaining 6 stitches and pull tight to close the hole. Weave in the end securely.

Face

With dark brown yarn, embroider two simple closed eyes on the front of the head, about 4 rounds above the belly. Position them symmetrically, roughly 4-5 stitches apart. Use a backstitch to create a small, smiling mouth centered below the eyes. Keep the face simple and sweet—this is a mama-to-be with a gentle expression!

Flower Crown

With blush pink yarn, create a delicate crown of petals for the top of the avocado's head.

1. Make a magic ring.
2. Round 1: 6 sc in ring. (6)
3. Round 2: *Ch 3, sl st in next st* repeat around to form 6 small petals. Fasten off, leaving a long tail.

Sew the flower crown to the top of the avocado's head, slightly tilted for a whimsical look. Make sure it's securely attached.

Leaf (Optional)

With light green yarn, add a cute leaf to complete the look.

1. Ch 6.
2. Sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in next, dc in next, hdc in next, sc in last.
3. Fasten off, leaving a tail.

Sew the leaf to the side of the flower crown, angling it outward for a natural look.

Finishing

Weave in all remaining ends carefully. Give your avocado a gentle squeeze to fluff it up and shape the belly. Your Blossom Belly Avocado is complete!

This adorable mama-to-be is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face. Whether displayed on a nursery shelf, gifted at a baby shower, or used as a sweet decor piece, it's a handmade treasure that celebrates new life in the coziest way. Happy crocheting!
