Stitching Instructions for Bee Breezy from “Adventure Time” Pattern:

Crochet the Head

Color: Yellow

Objective: Create a round, smooth head that forms the centerpiece of your Bee Breezy amigurumi.

• Round 1:
  • Begin by creating a magic ring. This technique allows you to start crocheting in the round without leaving a visible hole in the center.
  • Yarn over and insert your hook into the magic ring.
  • Work 6 single crochets (sc) into the ring. This forms the foundation of the head.
  • Tip: Pull the tail of the magic ring to close the loop tightly.
• Round 2:
  • Increase in each stitch around to start shaping the head.
  • Work 1 sc into each of the 6 stitches from the previous round.
  • After each sc, perform an increase (inc) by making 2 sc in the same stitch.
  • This results in 12 stitches at the end of Round 2.
• Round 3:
  • Continue shaping by alternating between regular and increased stitches.
  • Pattern: [Sc in the next stitch, inc] repeat around.
  • This will create 18 stitches in total.
  • Note: Ensure your increases are evenly spaced to maintain a smooth, spherical shape.
• Rounds 4-6:
  • No increases or decreases in these rounds.
  • Work 1 sc into each stitch around for 3 consecutive rounds.
  • This maintains the width of the head, ensuring it remains round and smooth.
• Round 7:
  • Begin shaping the top of the head by introducing decreases.
  • Pattern: [Sc in the next stitch, dec] repeat around.
  • This reduces the stitch count to 12 stitches, starting to taper the head.
• Round 8:
  • Complete the head by decreasing further.
  • Perform 1 dec in each stitch around.
  • This brings the total down to 6 stitches.
  • Finishing: Lightly stuff the head with fiberfill to give it a firm shape. Ensure it’s not overstuffed to maintain softness.
  • Fasten Off (FO): Cut the yarn, leaving a tail long enough for sewing. Pull the tail through the last stitch and secure.

Crochet the Body

• Colors: Yellow and Black (striped pattern)
• Objective: Create the striped body characteristic of Bee Breezy, ensuring it complements the head.
• Round 1:
  • Using black yarn, create a magic ring.
  • Work 6 sc into the magic ring, similar to the head’s base.
  • Tip: Keep the magic ring tight to avoid gaps.
• Round 2:
  • Increase in each stitch around.
  • Work 1 sc into each of the 6 stitches, performing an inc in each to reach 12 stitches.
  • This starts forming the cylindrical shape of the body.
• Round 3:
  • Further shape the body by alternating stitches.
  • Pattern: [Sc in the next stitch, inc] repeat around.
  • This results in 18 stitches, adding more width to the body.
• Rounds 4-5:
  • Switch to yellow yarn to create the striped pattern.
  • Work 1 sc into each stitch around for 2 rounds.
  • This maintains the width while introducing the color contrast.
• Round 6:
  • Switch back to black yarn.
  • Work 1 sc into each stitch around.
  • This continues the striped pattern, ensuring Bee Breezy’s iconic look.
• Rounds 7-8:
  • Switch to yellow yarn again.
  • Work 1 sc into each stitch around for 2 final rounds.
  • This completes the body with alternating stripes.
• Finishing:
  • Fasten Off (FO): Cut the yarn, leaving a tail for sewing.
  • Tip: Lightly stuff the body with fiberfill, ensuring it’s firm but not too tight.

Crochet the Wings

• Color: White
• Objective: Create delicate, semi-transparent wings to attach to the back of the body.
• Round 1:
  • Begin with a magic ring.
  • Work 6 sc into the ring.
  • Tip: Keep the magic ring tight for a neat starting point.
• Round 2:
  • Increase to shape the wings.
  • Pattern: [Sc in the next stitch, inc] repeat around.
  • This creates 9 stitches, giving the wings a slight expansion.
• Round 3:
  • Work 1 sc into each stitch around without any increases.
  • Maintain the 9 stitches to keep the wings flat and slightly rounded.
• Finishing:
  • Fasten Off (FO): Cut the yarn, leaving a tail for sewing.
  • Repeat: Crochet a second wing following the same instructions to ensure symmetry.

Crochet the Antennae

• Color: Black
• Objective: Create two slim antennae that sit atop the head, adding character to Bee Breezy.
• Antenna 1 & 2:
  • Chain (ch) 6: Create a foundation chain of 6 stitches.
  • Shape the Antenna:
    • Insert the hook into the second chain from the hook.
    • Slip Stitch (sl st) back along the chain to form a loop.
    • Fasten Off (FO): Cut the yarn, leaving a tail for attaching.
  • Tip: Keep the chains loose to allow the antennae to have a natural curve.

Assemble Bee Breezy

• Objective: Combine all the crocheted parts to form the complete Bee Breezy amigurumi.
• Attach the Head to the Body:
  • Use the tapestry needle and the yarn tail left from the head.
  • Sew the head securely to the top of the body, ensuring it’s centered.
  • Tip: Weave the needle through the stitches multiple times for added strength.
• Attach the Wings:
  • Position the wings symmetrically on the back of the body.
  • Sew each wing using the yarn tails, making sure they’re evenly spaced.
  • Note: Adjust the angle of the wings slightly outward for a dynamic look.
• Attach the Antennae:
  • Position the antennae on top of the head.
  • Sew each antenna securely, ensuring they stand upright.
  • Tip: You can gently bend the antennae to give Bee Breezy a more lively appearance.
• Add Facial Features:
  • Cheeks:
    • Using pink yarn, stitch small blush marks on each cheek.
    • Technique: Use the tapestry needle to make small, delicate stitches.
  • Eyes:
    • With a small piece of black yarn, create two tiny eyes.
    • Alternative: You can also use safety eyes or embroidery thread for a different effect.

Finishing Touches

• Objective: Ensure your Bee Breezy amigurumi is polished and all parts are securely in place.
• Weave in All Loose Ends:
  • Use the tapestry needle to hide any loose yarn tails within the seams.
  • Tip: This not only gives a clean look but also prevents unraveling.
• Secure All Attachments:
  • Double-check that the head, wings, and antennae are firmly attached.
  • Reinforce any areas that feel loose by sewing them again if necessary.
• Final Shaping:
  • Gently shape the head and body to ensure Bee Breezy stands or sits correctly.
  • Adjust the stuffing if needed to achieve the desired firmness.
• Optional Embellishments:
  • Instruments: If your pattern includes accessories like tiny instruments, crochet or add them following their specific instructions.
  • Personal Touches: Customize Bee Breezy with additional colors or details to make it uniquely yours.
