Bulbasaur Amigurumi Crochet Pattern

Quick Overview Of Pattern

Work in joined rounds, increasing and decreasing as instructed.
Create the body (head and lower body together), arms, legs, and ears separately.
The bulb is crocheted and attached to the body.
Add facial embroidery and sew on safety eyes.
Sew all pieces together securely and embroider spots for the final touch.

Notes

Use color-coordinated yarns: light blue-green for the body, dark green for the bulb, and dark blue-green for the spots.
Mark your starting stitch for rounds—use a yarn scrap or stitch marker.
Consistency in stitch count is more important than absolute precision.
