How it works

1

Start from an animal, or a body

Choose a bear, bunny or cat, or create from your own components. Add ready-made parts and custom recipes in a dedicated browser, then select each piece in the model or component list.

2

Make it yours

Use Build to shape and position components. Switch to Colour to paint whole pieces or exact round ranges. Enter measured gauge in project settings to improve the size estimate.

3

Read the pattern

The Pattern tab writes every part in US terms with the stitch count after each round, "make 2" for pairs, stuffing notes, and assembly notes that say which round each piece is sewn to. Copy it or print it.

Written the way crocheters expect

6, 12, 18, 24

Standard round shapes grow and shrink in six-stitch steps, with repeated rounds between changes. Custom sections let you control the recipe and see its resulting outline.

Sized in centimetres, counted in stitches

Use a yarn estimate or enter measured stitches and rounds per 10 cm. Custom recipes retain their counts; ready-made parts recalculate counts for their size settings.

Preview and pattern share a recipe

The model and written instructions use the same crochet rounds. The surface is an estimate: your yarn, tension and stuffing affect the finished shape, so test a sample.

Assembly included

"Sew the arms to the body at round 9, on opposite sides." Where you dragged a part is where the notes tell you to sew it.
