The multipart study combines one open-neck head, one open-neck body, two flat-ended arms and two compensated-bend legs. Its four component recipes produce six actual copies. The head uses 162 single-crochet outputs, the body 102, the pair of arms 108 and the pair of legs 204, totaling 576. Five attachment seams connect them: one matched neck seam, two arm seams and two leg seams. This is an actual assembly graph, not a sphere accompanied by a generic animal illustration.
Check the head and body before adding limbs
The head grows to twenty-four and narrows to twelve. The body grows to eighteen and also narrows to twelve. Pair those openings in the reverse order listed in the saved instructions, using twelve attachment pairs. Add filling before closing the final gap. Keep the body's initial magic-ring end oriented downward and its narrowing neck upward, so the later arm and leg references belong to the intended region.
Locate the two different limb attachment bands
The arms each have a twelve-position rim flattened into six pairs. Attach them to body round six at stitches two through seven and eleven through sixteen. The legs also have six paired edge positions each, but attach to the same stitch ranges on body round three. Those are different physical rounds, so their anchors do not coincide. Keep each leg's decrease side marked while pinning the copies, then compare the front orientation before permanent sewing.
FAQ and assembly repairs
Are the thirty-six attachment pairs extra crochet stitches?
No. Twelve neck pairs plus four six-pair limb seams describe sewing work. The crochet workload remains 576 outputs.
Where are the ears and facial features?
This is a multipart body study. Ears and embroidery need their own counted projects rather than unlisted pieces.
Why is one leg facing sideways?
Recheck its inside-bend marker and the intended front before reinforcing the seam. The connection graph cannot assess physical orientation from a photograph.
Can I change only one limb's size?
That changes its paired edge and symmetry. Generate a new supported relationship and verify all receiving references instead of keeping the old seam count.
Exact setup, stitch key and complete sequence
Open the Amigurumi Shape Planner, choose multipart, set growth rounds to 4 and even rounds or shaft length to 3, compensated bend rounds to 2. Download the exact original project JSON before editing it. Use smooth compatible yarn, a hook giving firm fabric, removable markers, suitable filling and a tapestry needle. The swatches identify component yarn roles; they do not assign a different yarn to every round unless a row explicitly says so.
In US terms, sc means single crochet, an increase works two sc in one old base and sc2tog consumes two bases to make one stitch. In UK mode those become dc and dc2tog without changing source coordinates or counts. Mark the first stitch of each separate spiral and move the marker after every completed circuit; do not add joining slip stitches or turning chains. Follow each part's own start, final rim and closure. Make the stated number of copies, then execute any separate attachment rows. Read the amigurumi shaping guide and compare the actual fabric after filling. The diagram is a counted construction reference; physical size, bend angle and finished suitability need a real sample. Finish every tail securely before handling the completed form.
