A free crochet goat pattern for a round, squishy white goat mochi ball with tan horns that curve backwards, made for the Year of the Goat 2027. This amigurumi goat has sideways ears with pink insides, a small pointed tan beard right under its smile, little grey hooves and rosy cheeks, and it sits steady on a flat base. It is worked in the round in single crochet with DK yarn and a 2.5 mm hook, ends up about 7 cm (2.6 in) tall, and uses 9 mm safety eyes with an embroidered nose and mouth. Follow it row by row with stitch counts and turn the interactive 3D model to see where the horns, ears and beard are sewn.

- Size before assembly: about 7.1 cm at the widest, 5 cm long; 22 rounds.
- → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
- Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.
- Size before assembly: about 1.3 cm at the widest, 3.5 cm long; 10 rounds.
- Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff firmly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done. Bend ≈ 125° around round 5<!-- the bend spreads over 5 rounds -->. After stuffing, bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces backward on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 5, 0.5 st from the centre back line, toward the toy's left <!-- st 0.55 left -->). On the inner side draw rounds 4 and 7 together (3 rounds go into the fold): with the needle and matching yarn make 3–4 stitches through the loops of both rounds over about 2 st, pull to the angle and hide the end inside. Bend the second piece as a mirror image.
- Size before assembly: about 1.3 cm at the widest, 2.3 cm long; 7 rounds.
- Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff it lightly — a thin layer, just enough to hold the walls apart: the ear about 10.8 mm thick, with thick rounded edges. Then shape it into a spoon: push the front wall toward the back wall — a concave spoon about 1.1 mm deep in front, a rounded back; about 13 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.<!-- (spoon 40 %) -->
- Size before assembly: about 0.9 cm at the widest, 1.6 cm long; 5 rounds.

- → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
- Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.
