Who’s getting excited for sweater weather? I know I am! I love the autumn season and all of the tasty treats that come with it. This week, we’re releasing a fun free pattern inspired by one of those delicious bites.
Cider the Donut was designed by Ashley Jane McIntyre. Crocheted using soft and sturdy Ricorumi DK held alongside Rico Design Metallic No 40 thread, Cider is an adorable amigurumi you can make for yourself or gift to a friend!
Cider is constructed by crocheting in the round in a continuous spiral. After the tube is made, you’ll stuff the donut and seam the ends together. Once stuffed n’ seamed, you can follow the embroidery instructions for the face, or get creative and make Cider uniquely yours.
This project is an excellent addition to your desk decor, or add a keychain and attach it to your favorite bag! I love the colors chosen for this project, the sparkle in Rico Design’s Metallic No 40 thread is perfectly reminiscent of the sugary coating on apple cider donuts.
If I made Cider the Donut myself, I think I’d have to go with a pink color and sparkles for a strawberry glazed donut! What flavor would you create?
