The Little Unicorn Amigurumi

Don’t limit yourself to only making unicorns with white coats. Bright shades of unexpected colors like this brilliant blue can add an extra dash of magic to your crochet unicorn projects. This charming design is made in the traditional amigurumi style using just single crochet stitches. I especially love the colorful curls of the unicorn’s mane.

Sparkle the Crochet Unicorn

Blanket yarn isn’t just for blankets! This thick yarn can also make the cutest supersize stuffed animals. They are the perfect size for snuggling and the soft blanket yarn will make you want to snuggle with it all the time. This unicorn design includes a little heart shape on the back that resembles the “cutie marks” that the horses have on the My Little Pony cartoon.

Amigurumi Unicorns

The only thing cuter than a crochet unicorn amigurumi is two of them together – one big and one small. This pattern includes separate instructions for both the small unicorn and the big unicorn. Each size is made using the same yarn and hook size, but the baby unicorn has less stitches and rows.

Pocket Unicorn

You can get near instant gratification with this small and speedy unicorn project. Crochet unicorn patterns for amigurumi this small are great for making keychains and for stuffing into stockings. What this little unicorn lacks in size, she makes up for in personality. I’m low key obsessed with how she is designed with human-like body proportions.

PPB Rainbow Unicorn Amigurumi

Using a thinner yarn weight is a great way to produce a dainty looking unicorn with lots of detail. This pretty unicorn has golden hooves to match her horns. I like the way she can sit up and still have a fairly accurate horse anatomy. And just in case you’re wondering, PPB stands for pink purple blue – the colors of the mane and tail.

Unicorn Blanket

As it turns out, the iconic horn of this magical creature is so ubiquitous that it’s even recognizable as a unicorn without a head and body. Well, that’s certainly the case for this colorful unicorn blanket pattern anyway! The pattern calls for just single and double crochet stitches. It is worked from the center out in a solid granny square and would look great in lots of different colors.

Uma the Unicorn

Just look at this precious unicorn! I’m obsessed with her unique light gray coloring, her oversize head, and her big expressive eyes. She is sporting a very simple mane and tail made of strands of yarn. This is a much faster and easier alternative to the thicker, curly manes you see on a lot of other amigurumi unicorns.

Sparkle and Shimmer Unicorn

Did you know that Red Heart has mini cakes of thin fingering weight yarn designed to make adorably small stuffies? All the colors you can see in the photo (white, red, blue, and yellow) came from one skein of yarn. If you don’t have very many colors of yarn in your stash, then this is a great choice for making colorful creations without buying multiple skeins.

Easy Unicorn Amigurumi

One popular yarn people like to use for crochet unicorn patterns is the kind that has speckles of color in it. I personally love this trend and I think it really adds a lot of life and personality to your projects. This design aspect works especially well when paired with a coordinating color of yarn for accents on the hooves, mane, tail, and even the horn.

Crochet Unicorn

One classic take on unicorn design is a white body with a gold horn and a rainbow mane. This design ticks all the boxes and adds an extra dash of whimsy with heart shapes on the bottom hooves. There is also a variation of the pattern for making a regular horse/pony.

Unicorn

Bulky weight velvet yarn makes the softest stuffies around. They work up very quickly, too, thanks to the thickness of the yarn. This cute unicorn is sporting a non-traditional color palette with a gray body, a light blue horn, pink hair, and purple hooves. Put them all together and you get something really special!

Cornelia the Unicorn

I’m a sucker for amigurumi patterns that can stand up on their own because they’re perfect for displaying. This pretty unicorn is standing tall and proud with cute little yellow rain boots on her feet. The boots are removable which is nice for imaginative play. The pattern includes instructions for making the funny rainbow poo, also.

Poppy the Unicorn

Sometimes it amazes me just how many different styles of stuffies you can make, especially considering that most of them are made using just single crochet stitches. As far as crochet unicorn patterns go, this is one of the cutest ones around. I love the various colors of ringlets and the fact that the unicorn can sit up on its own.

Cute Unicorn

Anthropomorphic amigurumi (say that ten times fast) have human characteristics like clothing. I do appreciate a good clothed stuffie pattern because you can let your imagination run wild with customizing colors. This beautiful unicorn pattern uses mainly single crochet stitches with a few double crochet stitches thrown in for the skirt.

Eunice the Unicorn

Here’s another one of our crochet unicorn patterns that uses speckled yarn. The colorful rainbow flecks in this yarn are perfect for capturing the magic of unicorns in stuffed animal form. The most notable thing about this design is the use of faux fur yarn for the mane and tail, which is definitely a time saving alternative to ringlets. Plus, they’re super soft!

Confetti the Unicorn

Uh oh, it looks like this fluffy unicorn has been eating too much of whatever unicorns eat (Hay? Rainbows? Your guess is as good as mine!) But that’s ok because it just means that there is more to love! The oversize design is satisfyingly squishable and looks like it would be excellent for snuggling. You’ll make the colorful mane using different colored strands of yarn.

Unicorn Lovey

It can be tempting to include lots and lots of colors when deciding on your unicorn projects, but sometimes limiting the color palette is the way to go. Using just white, pink, and gold yarn makes this unicorn baby lovey extra adorable and sweetly sophisticated perfect for any baby girl.
