Why You'll Love This Train Loris Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it brings a whimsical toy train to life with simple amigurumi techniques and thoughtful details. I enjoyed designing the separate wagon and logs so you can assemble and customize the layout. The pattern balances small parts with easy repeats so it feels rewarding without being overwhelming. I also love how the color combinations can be changed to match any nursery or gift recipient.

Switch Things Up

I love how easy it is to customize the color palette; try pastel shades for a softer baby-friendly look or bright primaries for a playful toy.

You can change the size by using a thicker yarn and larger hook to make a chunky cuddle version, or a finer yarn to make a tiny keychain train.

I sometimes add embroidered faces or felt appliques to personalize the train and give it extra character for gifts.

Swap the logs for little crocheted packages or toys to change the wagon theme and create a different playset.

For more stability, insert a thin wire into axles or the wagon cover to better hold shapes and allow a little poseability.

I often make matching accessories like a tiny conductor hat or scarf to give the train a story and added charm.

Use safety eyes on larger trains or simply embroider eyes on smaller versions to keep them toy-safe for babies.

Try alternating the stitch direction (BLO vs full SC) to add texture contrasts on the chassis or roof for a modern look.

If you want a more rustic style, use wool blend yarns and muted colors to give the logs and wagon a natural feel.

I recommend testing different button styles for the rope closure—choose a wooden button for a vintage touch or a bright plastic one for a child-friendly finish.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping stitch counts during increases can make parts too short or too long; count stitches each round and mark the start of rounds with a marker. ✗ Overstuffing small pieces like lamps or wheels causes distortion and lumps; stuff gradually and lightly, adding small amounts until the shape is correct. ✗ Changing color without securing ends properly will cause loose tails; weave and hide your yarn ends after each color change to keep edges neat. ✗ Not aligning wheels and axles before sewing results in crooked placement; pin or hold the axle and wheel assembly in place and check symmetry before stitching. ✗ Crocheting too tightly makes small tubes hard to shape and thread with wire; relax your tension or use a slightly larger hook for tubular parts so they sit nicely when assembled.

Assembly Instructions

  • Sew the axles to the wheels: pick up the remaining stitches on each wheel and attach the axle ends securely, then cut and hide yarn tails.
  • Attach the chassis parts together by sewing the square part and subfloors to the main chassis body, aligning edges and checking symmetry before finishing.
  • Sew the roof onto the top of the chassis after positioning the chimney and chimney top, then secure windows and front part of chassis in place.
  • Assemble the wagon by sewing the grey wagon subfloor, attaching four wheels, placing the logs on top, and secure them using the crocheted rope and button closure.
  • Position and sew the front lamps and the star to the front part of the chassis, and weave in all ends to finish.
  • Insert the bent wire into the crocheted cover for the back, then sew this covered wire piece to the back of the chassis to form the handle/support.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use stitch markers to keep track of the beginning of each round, especially when working rounds with increases and decreases.
  • 💡Stuff small parts gradually and lightly so shapes remain smooth without bulging or lumps for a professional finish.
  • 💡When switching colors, fasten off and weave in ends neatly to avoid loose tails showing on the surface.
