Why You'll Love This Baby Fox in Apple Bag Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely adore this pattern because it's not just a toy, it's a tiny world!

Switch Things Up

I absolutely love how versatile this pattern can be with just a few color swaps! While the red apple is classic, imagine making a 'Green Apple' home using a bright granny smith green for the exterior, or even turning it into a pumpkin for autumn by using orange yarn and adjusting the leaf shape slightly.

For the foxes, you aren't limited to red and white. You could easily create a little grey wolf or a brown bear cub by simply changing the yarn colors and keeping the same adorable body shape. I also think adding a tiny strap to the bag would turn it into the cutest real purse for a toddler to carry their foxy friends around in!

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Pulling yarn too tight during Jacquard color changes can pucker the face; keep the carried yarn loose behind the work. ✗ Overstuffing the bag panels will make the apple misshapen; stuff flat pieces lightly or use foam stabilizers if preferred. ✗ Misaligning the side strips of the apple bag causes a twisted zipper effect; pin carefully before joining the edges. ✗ Sewing the head too high on the neck can make the fox look stiff; attach it slightly lower for a cute, nodding look.

Place the two finished pieces (halves of the apple) on top of each other. On the long side using Red thread connecting the parts together. Make a fastener on the Heart Bag (sew a button on one side, make a button loop on the other). Fasten. (Author note: I made fasteners on three sides).

Assembly Instructions

  • Fasten the legs and arms of the foxes with a thread mount (jointing) using a long needle and thread so they can move.
  • Sew the tails to the fox bodies and embroider the upper eyelids, mouth, and nose with black thread.
  • Assemble the apple bag by joining the red/yellow pairs of side parts and base parts, then attaching the base to the sides with reverse single crochet.
  • Sew the brown pocket onto the interior of one of the apple base halves.
  • Attach the handle to the top of the apple bag and sew the three green leaves around the base of the handle.
  • Join the two halves of the apple bag along the long side using red thread to create a hinge.
  • Add buttons and loops to the dress and the bag opening to create fasteners.

Important Notes

  • 💡Crochet the bag parts very tightly using the 1.75mm hook to ensure the bag holds its shape well.
  • 💡When doing Jacquard color changes (for the fox faces and blanket), carry the unused yarn color loosely behind the work to prevent puckering.
  • 💡The bag is constructed with double walls (a yellow inner layer and red outer layer) to provide stiffness and hide the 'wrong' side of the fabric.
  • 💡Use stitch markers to keep track of rounds, especially on the continuous spiral pieces like the fox heads and bodies.

You have created a magical little world! 🦊🍎 These baby foxes in their apple home are ready for adventures. Whether it's nap time with the tiny blanket or play time in the garden, this set is full of joy. Happy crocheting! 🧶✨

FAQs

What is the finished size of the foxes?

The foxes stand approximately 11 cm (4.3 inches) tall when using the indicated materials.

How big is the apple bag?

The finished bag measures about 15cm (5.9 inches) in length, 14cm (5.5 inches) in width, and 7cm (2.7 inches) in thickness.

Can I use a larger hook size?

It is recommended to use the 1.75mm hook as specified, especially for the bag, to ensure the fabric is stiff enough to hold its shape. A larger hook might make the bag floppy.

What is the Jacquard technique mentioned?

The Jacquard technique involves carrying the unused yarn color inside or behind your stitches so you can switch colors mid-row without cutting the yarn. This is used for the fox faces and the checkered blanket.
