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

Free crochet goat pattern: a Goat in a Sweater amigurumi, about 14 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. It is a chubby white goat with grey horns, floppy ears, a cream muzzle, amber eyes with sideways pupils and a red knitted sweater with a white star. You need about 120 m of yarn: 60 m ivory, 20 m red, 10 m grey, 10 m cream, 5 m dark grey, 5 m beige, 5 m blush pink and 5 m white. Plan on roughly 4 hours. It works well as a winter gift for goat fans or a festive shelf decoration. Spin the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern as you crochet.

How to crochet the Goat in a Sweater

Advanced · 14 cm tall · about 4 h · DK yarn · 2.5 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 16 pieces in rounds: Body, Sweater hem, Head, Sweater collar, Star, Arm with sleeve ×2, Leg ×2, Ear ×2, Horn ×2, Beard, Cheek ×2 (108 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 11 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.

  15. Size before assembly: about 7.4 cm at the widest, 5.5 cm long; 19 rounds.
  16. Change to red (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R8).
  17. 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.

  3. Size before assembly: about 6.9 cm at the widest, 1.1 cm long; 2 rounds.
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

  27. Size before assembly: about 8.4 cm at the widest, 6.9 cm long; 28 rounds. Multi-colour rounds are listed stitch by stitch from the round-start marker; keep the round start on the piece's centre front line (as it sits on the finished toy). The order is for right-handed crocheting (right to left on the outside); left-handed: reverse it.
  28. → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  29. 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.

  3. Size before assembly: about 6.2 cm at the widest, 1.1 cm long; 2 rounds.
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

  3. Flat motif — star (worked in rounds, one layer of fabric), about 2.6 × 2.8 cm; 2 rows.
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (~30 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Weave in the starting tail, pin the motif out to shape on a soft surface and steam it lightly.

  10. Size before assembly: about 1.6 cm at the widest, 4.1 cm long; 11 rounds.
  11. Change to ivory (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R3).
  12. Change to cream (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R6).
  13. Change to red (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R7).
  14. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  9. Size before assembly: about 3.3 cm at the widest, 3.4 cm long; 11 rounds.
  10. Change to ivory (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R2).
  11. 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.

  9. Size before assembly: about 2.2 cm at the widest, 4 cm long; 12 rounds.
  10. 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 2.1 mm deep in front, a rounded back; about 22 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.<!-- (spoon 45 %) -->

  12. Size before assembly: about 1.9 cm at the widest, 4.9 cm long; 14 rounds.
  13. 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 ≈ 90° around round 6<!-- the bend spreads over 8 rounds -->. After stuffing, bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces backward on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 6, 0.5 st from the centre back line, toward the toy's left <!-- st 0.57 left -->). It is a gradual bend: with the needle and matching yarn run a line of stitches along the inner side from round 4 to round 8, one stitch in every round along one column, then pull the yarn until the piece bends to the angle (the inner side gathers by about 4 rounds) and fasten off inside. Bend the second piece as a mirror image.

  5. Size before assembly: about 0.8 cm at the widest, 1.6 cm long; 5 rounds.
  6. 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.

  3. A flat circle about 1.5 cm across; 2 rounds.
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

The whole face is embroidered. Order: the eyes (black satin), then the white glints over them, then the nose and mouth, blush last. Mark the centres with pins first and compare with the picture. Bring thread ends out where a sewn-on piece will cover them, or bury them in the stuffing.

  • Felt (amber), 2 ovals 13×12 mm (on the head) (symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image), glue or sew on: between rounds 14 and 15, 5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left .
  • Satin stitch (on the head) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image): in black thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 8.5 mm wide and 2.8 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 14 and 15, 5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left .
  • Satin stitch (on the head): in nose brown thread, a oval about 6.5 mm wide and 4 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 18, on the centre front line .
  • Embroidery in brown thread (on the head), straight stitches through: (between rounds 18 and 19, on the centre front line ) → (between rounds 19 and 20, on the centre front line ).
  • Embroidery in brown thread (on the head) (2, symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image), straight stitches through: (between rounds 19 and 20, on the centre front line ) → (in round 20, 1.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 20, 3 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ).
