Crochet Duck and Mallard Amigurumi Pattern (2-in-1 with 4 Hat Styles)

Crochet Duck and Mallard Amigurumi Pattern (2-in-1 with 4 Hat Styles) (No-sew plushies, approx. 15 cm tall, chenille yarn, intermediate level)

There is a little round duck in a strawberry hat sitting on a market table and absolutely everyone who walks past stops to pick it up. This pattern gives you two birds, a cheerful yellow duck and a classic green-headed mallard, plus four interchangeable hats so you can keep them seasonal, themed, or just irresistibly different every time you make one. Two birds, four hats, and a no-sew construction that makes the whole thing faster than you expect.

What's Included:

• Written pattern, delivered as an English PDF download in US crochet terms, worked in continuous rounds
• 1 PDF file with 2 complete bird patterns: yellow Duck and green-headed Mallard
• 4 hat pattern variations: strawberry hat with stem, mushroom hat, cowboy hat, and frog hat with crocheted eyes
• No-sew construction throughout: wings, feet, and beak are all crocheted directly onto the body, no separate joining required
• Color change guidance for the Mallard included at each relevant round, so you always know exactly when and where to switch
• Photo reference images and a beginner tip included for the feet construction
• A clean, rounded plush finish that reads boutique, not homemade

What You'll Need:

• Chenille yarn, super bulky weight (size 6), approximately 100 g / 120 m per bird, in yellow, orange, green, white, brown, and a small amount of pink for cheeks
• 4.5 mm crochet hook
• Safety eyes: 14 mm for the duck and mallard bodies, 10 mm for the frog hat eyes
• Polyester fiberfill for stuffing
• Stitch markers and a yarn needle
• Stitches used: magic ring (MR), chain (CH), slip stitch (SLST), single crochet (SC), half double crochet (HDC), double crochet (DC), increase (INC), invisible decrease (DEC), front loop only (FLO), back loop only (BLO), sc2tog, color change (CC)

Skill Level: Intermediate.

You should be comfortable with working in continuous rounds, color changes, and basic increases and decreases. The no-sew technique for attaching the wings, beak, and feet is the key skill here, and the pattern walks you through it clearly at each step so you can get the alignment right without second-guessing yourself.

Why Crocheters Will Love It:

• No-sew construction means wings, beak, and feet attach as you crochet the body, so there is no fiddly after-the-fact sewing and no parts at risk of coming loose
• Two birds in one purchase gives you a classic yellow duck and a fully colored mallard from a single pattern, with clear color change notes for each
• Four hat designs in different styles let you change the personality of each bird completely without making a new plushie
• Working in size 6 chenille with a 4.5 mm hook gives you a fast, satisfying make that finishes at approximately 15 cm tall, the perfect market table size
• The frog hat includes its own crocheted eyes, so it looks finished and dimensional rather than flat, a detail that makes it the crowd favorite
• Color change rounds for the Mallard are called out directly in the pattern, so you never lose your place or have to flip back to check
• The no-sew build gives each duck a clean, solid structure from every angle, which means they photograph well and hold up to handling

Perfect For:

Market sellers who want a fast, crowd-pleasing make they can rotate through seasonal themes, gift-givers looking for something genuinely playful and handmade, intermediate makers ready to try no-sew construction for the first time, and anyone who wants two finished plushies from a single pattern purchase.

Two birds, four hats, and a no-sew build that makes each one faster than the last. Pick a hat, pick a colorway, and start the magic ring, your market table has been waiting for these!
