A4 PDF: materials, every round with a tick box, assembly and face

A free crochet donut pattern for a pink-iced donut with a smiling face and two short legs. This amigurumi donut is a soft ring in golden dough with strawberry glaze on the front, a scatter of embroidered rainbow sprinkles, rosy cheeks and cream legs, a cute plushie for a snack-loving friend. It is worked in the round in single crochet with DK yarn and a 2.5 mm hook, has 8 mm safety eyes, and stands about 10 cm (4 in) tall. Follow it row by row with stitch counts and turn the interactive 3D model to see how the ring and the face fit together.

How to crochet the Donut with Little Legs

Beginner-friendly · 10 cm tall · about 2 h · DK yarn · 2.5 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 5 pieces in rounds: Donut, Leg ×2, Cheek ×2 (26 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 3 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.
  3. Add the face: safety eyes by round and stitch, or embroider them for a child under 3.

Every round with its stitch count is in the Pattern tab below, and in the free printable PDF.

What you'll need

Gauge

1 sc ≈ 4 mm wide, 1 round ≈ 3.6 mm tall (10 cm ≈ 25 sc × 28 rounds); yarn about 1.9 mm thick. The gauge sets the size of the toy; crochet tightly so the stuffing does not show.

Worked in

Continuous spiral rounds. Don't join. Move a stitch marker up every round.

    1. Donut is the base; its magic ring is at the back.
    1. Leg → donut (make 2). Centre: in round 8, 3 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew around the opening (10 st); the seam covers rounds 7–10 of the donut, about 4 st wide. It points down.
    1. Cheek → donut (make 2). Centre: between rounds 13 and 14, 5 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew it flat all round its edge; it covers rounds 12–15 of the donut, about 3 st wide.

    Safety eyes and noses go in before the piece is stuffed and closed (see the pieces above); embroidery is easier before the piece is sewn on.

    • Safety eyes with a printed glint 8 mm (on the donut): in round 15, 32 st apart (count along round 15: about 1.8 st each side of the centre bottom line).
    • Embroidery in cocoa thread (on the donut), straight stitches through: (in round 14, 1 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 13 and 14, 0.5 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 13, on the centre bottom line ) → (between rounds 13 and 14, 0.5 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 14, 1 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's right ).
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in snow white thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 15° anticlockwise (looking at that surface); centred between rounds 12 and 13, 3 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left .
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in mint thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 40° anticlockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 14, 5.5 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left .
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in sun yellow thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 20° clockwise (looking at that surface); centred between rounds 12 and 13, 12 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left.
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in sky blue thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 70° clockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 14, 12.5 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left .
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in snow white thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 70° anticlockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 13, 7 st from the centre bottom line, toward the toy's left .
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in mint thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 70° anticlockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 16, 2 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left .
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in sun yellow thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 95° clockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 16, 5 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left .
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in sky blue thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 1.8 mm wide and 5.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches, turned 45° clockwise (looking at that surface); centred in round 16, 8 st from the centre top line, toward the toy's left .
