Amigurumi Crochet Puppy Free Pattern
This is the preferred way to decrease in amigurumi, it keeps the decrease tight and avoids the ‘bump’ of a regular SC decrease.
An invisible decrease happens over two stitches, insert your hook into the front loop of the first stitch and then into the front loop of the next stitch (you will have 3 loops on your hook), yarn over, pull through two loops (you will have 2 loops left on your hook), yarn over again and pull through all loops on the hook.
You’re invisible decrease is done!

Notes
· Slowly stuff as you go, you want it to be firm but not stretched. You will be working in a continuous round; I recommend using a stitch marker at the beginning or end of each round.
· For this pattern the body and head will be made as one piece.
Nose
With accent color
Round 1: Create a magic circle with 6 SC
Round 2: SC INC in each stitch (12)
Round 3: SC in the first stitch, SC INC in the next, rep around (18)
Round 4: SC in the first 2 sts, SC INC in the next, rep around (24)
Rounds 5-7: SC around (24)
Fasten off leaving a long tail for sewing. Insert your safety nose just above the middle point. I placed mine between rounds 2 and 3.
