Dear fellow amigurumi enthusiasts,
I'm super excited to share with you my latest design, the Stormtrooper Inspired Doll! He's my cute, pocket-sized yarn version of the iconic Star Wars character. I'd say he is more adorable than menacing as a tiny, little amigurumi though!
This pattern is quick and easy to crochet and makes a great toy gift for kids and children alike. This versatile pattern can also serve as a male or female human body base to crochet into other custom characters.
I also made an Anakin Skywalker that goes along with this Stormtrooper doll. If you'd like to make this duo, check out his pattern page too!
