Free crochet jelly donut pattern: a Jelly Donut Sufganiyah with Candle amigurumi, about 8 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. It is a round golden donut dusted with white sugar, with a red jam dot on top, a tiny blue and white candle, rosy cheeks and a surprised open mouth. You need about 50 m of yarn: 15 m golden brown, 10 m pale gold, 5 m white, 5 m red, 5 m rose, 5 m yellow and 5 m blue. Plan on roughly 2 hours. A fun Hanukkah gift for anyone who loves a sugary donut, or a plush snack for a play kitchen. This is a quick make, and you can spin the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern.

How to crochet the Jelly Donut Sufganiyah with Candle

Beginner-friendly · 8 cm tall · about 2 h · DK yarn · 2.5 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 6 pieces in rounds: Donut, Candle, Flame, Cheek ×2, Jam drip (41 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 5 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.

    1. Donut is the base; its magic ring is at the bottom.
    1. Candle → donut. Centre: between rounds 19 and 20, 3.5 st from the centre back line, toward the toy's left . Sew the piece on by its start (the magic ring side); it touches rounds 19–21 of the donut, about 2 st wide. It points up. Press it into the base by about 5 mm.
    1. Flame → candle. Centre: at the centre of the last round. Sew the piece on by its closed end (last rounds); it touches round 5 of the candle (all the way round). It points up. Press it into the base by about 3 mm.
    1. Cheek → donut (make 2). Centre: between rounds 12 and 13, 8 st from the centre front 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 11–14 of the donut, about 3 st wide.
    1. Jam drip → donut. Centre: at the centre of the last round. Sew the piece on by its closed end (last rounds); it touches rounds 22–23 of the donut (all the way round). It points up. Press it into the base by about 5 mm.

    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 9 mm (on the donut): in round 14, 8 st apart (count along round 14: about 4.2 st each side of the centre front line).
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in dark brown thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 9 mm wide and 6.5 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 11, on the centre front line .
    • Satin stitch (on the donut): in pink thread in several layers so it stands out, a oval about 6 mm wide and 3.4 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 10 and 11, on the centre front line .
