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

Free crochet yule goat pattern: a Standing Yule Goat with Red Ribbons amigurumi, about 19 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. It is a golden straw-coloured goat standing on four straight legs with a long neck, big horns curving back, a short beard, darker straw stripes and red ribbon bands round its neck, body and legs. You need about 95 m of yarn: 60 m golden yellow, 25 m dark straw and 10 m red. Plan on roughly 3 hours. Perfect as a Christmas tree sitter, a mantel decorator or a gift for anyone who loves Scandinavian holiday traditions. Spin the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern.

How to crochet the Standing Yule Goat with Red Ribbons

  10. 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.

  1. Size before assembly: about 4.1 cm at the widest, 5.1 cm long; 17 rounds.
  2. → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  3. 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.

  1. Size before assembly: an oval about 2 × 1.6 cm at the widest, 2 cm long; 6 rounds. The piece is oval: the rounds go around the chain, and on the finished toy the chain (the long side of the oval) runs side to side; the starting chain is at the front of the piece (on the finished toy). The round-start marker is in the middle of a long side (the piece's centre line), while R1 starts at a turn: after R1 shift the round start — sc 1 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
  2. With golden yellow: ch 3.
  3. 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.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.9 cm at the widest, 6.4 cm long; 18 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff moderately just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done. Bend ≈ 165° around round 8<!-- the bend spreads over 12 rounds -->. After stuffing, bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces backward on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 8, on the centre back line <!-- st 0.2 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 11, 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 7 rounds) and fasten off inside. Bend the second piece as a mirror image.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.1 cm at the widest, 1.6 cm long; 5 rounds.
  2. 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 10.6 mm thick, with thick rounded edges. Then shape it into a spoon: push the front wall toward the back wall — a concave spoon about 0.8 mm deep in front, a rounded back; about 11 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.<!-- (spoon 35 %) -->

  1. Size before assembly: about 0.8 cm at the widest, 2.1 cm long; 6 rounds.
  2. → Start stuffing (lightly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  3. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 4 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  1. Of these: hind — 2 (left and right); front — 2 (left and right). Size before assembly: about 1.6 cm at the widest, 6.6 cm long; 18 rounds.
  2. Change to golden yellow (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R2).
  3. Change to dark straw (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R7).
  4. Change to golden yellow (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R8).
  5. Change to red (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R12).
  6. Change to golden yellow (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R13).
  7. 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.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.1 cm at the widest, 2.1 cm long; 6 rounds.
  2. → Start stuffing (lightly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  3. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 5 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  1. Flat motif — triangle (worked in turned rows, one layer of fabric), about 1.4 × 2.4 cm; 4 rows.
  2. 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.

  1. A flat circle about 0.8 cm across; 1 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

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 Head): between rounds 5 and 6, 10 st apart (count along round 5: about 4.8 st each side of the centre top line).
  • Embroidery in black thread (on the Snout), straight stitches through: (between rounds 1 and 2, on the centre top line ) → (in round 1, on the centre top line ) → (between rounds 1 and 2, on the centre top line ).
