• Step 1

  The Essentials:

  Hook: 2mm.

  Wool: DK in red, white, grey and black.

  Above colours makes Knight as shown. Red can be substituted for green, orange, blue, pink or pale grey to make the game’s full range of Knights.

  Also needed: Black embroidery thread.

  Finished Size: 3” tall.

  Terms:

  CH = Chain

  SC = Single Crochet

  SL ST = Slip Stitch

  INC = Increase

  DEC = Decrease

  I start my amigurumi using CH2 for simplicity, but if you prefer you can use a magic ring.

  NB: Some of this pattern is crocheted in joined rounds. Unlike usual, do not chain one at the beginning to raise the stitch unless directed to by the pattern.
