Acorn Weevil Crochet Pattern — Beetle Amigurumi PDF in English

The Acorn Weevil has one of the most extraordinary features in the insect world — a snout so long it can be nearly as long as its entire body! It uses that incredible rostrum to drill into acorns and lay its eggs inside. Bizarre, brilliant, and absolutely perfect for crochet.

The PDF is written in English (US crochet terminology) and includes many step-by-step photos to guide you through the process.

Skill level: Intermediate — you should be comfortable with magic circle, crocheting in a spiral, increases, invisible decreases, and basic sewing. The long snout is worked separately and attached.

Required materials:

• Yarn — I used Gazzal Baby Cotton in warm brown and cream tones
• Hook — 1.50 mm
• Safety eyes — 6 mm diameter
• Hollowfibre stuffing
• Wire for legs (optional, for posing)
• Tapestry needle, stitch marker, pins

What you’ll receive: An instant digital download PDF file — not a finished toy. No physical item will be shipped.
