FREE Globox Crochet Pattern

By Michelle -

This is a pretty easy pattern and it's based on Globox's design from Rayman 3 on the ye olde PS2. If he's a little wonky, it's ok because Globox is a little wonky! I think this is a decent beginner crochet pattern, but you should be familiar with the abbreviations or willing to use Google - this pattern will not teach you to crochet, but you can use it to practice!

If you want to snag an ad-free PDF copy you can get one here. It's a pay-what-you-want pattern, so if you want to throw in a little extra $$$, it is always appreciated. The PDF version also has some extra images to help with construction and assembly that aren't included below (that is me trying to upsell). Oh, and the $$ allow me to keep making cool things without being homeless, which is neat, right? Right??? RIGHT?!

Otherwise, may your ads be targeted properly and you can just stay where you are.


TOOLS AND MATERIALS

·         Size F crochet hook
·         Worsted weight yarn in blue, white, light yellow, and a small amount of black
o   Blue is the color you need the most of and you need LESS THAN 7 oz/198 g/364 yds/333 m (this is the size of a regular skein of RedHeart Super Saver and you will have yarn leftover)
·         Stitch marker because rounds are continuous
·         Yarn needle
·         Stuffing material
·         Pins (optional, to position parts for attaching) – I like to use bobby pins

ABBREVIATIONS AND SKILLS NEEDED

·         Sl: slip stitch
·         Ch: chain
·         Sc: single crochet
·         Inc: increase
·         Dec: decrease
·         BLO: back loop only
·         Rnd/rnds: round/rounds

This is a pretty easy pattern and should be easy to scale up (or down). This is a goof project for adding weighted stuffing to the bottom or experimenting with wiring the arms – I did not do either of these things so I did not include instructions to do so, but there are plenty of resources online.

You need to be familiar with how to change colors in the round and carry the unused color behind the work, unless you want to break off and rejoin your yarn instead. I also recommend doing invisible decreases (decrease in the front loops only) when decreasing in the rnd, but if you don’t want to that’s fine. Running stitch/whip stitch are used for joining.

Gauge: 4 sc/inch and 4 sc rows/inch but gauge is not all that important for plushies

Finished Globox measures about 9” tall. You can change your yarn weight/hook size to change the size of Globox.

PATTERN

Total sts in rnd/row are indicated in parentheses().

HEAD AND BODY
Starting at head, with blue.
Rnd 1: ch 2, sc 6 in 2nd ch from hook (6);
Rnd 2: inc around (12);
Rnd 3: * sc, inc, repeat from * around (18);
Rnd 4: * sc 2, inc, repeat from * around (24);
Rnds 5-6 (2 rnds): sc around (24);
Rnd 7: * sc 3, inc, repeat from * around (30);
Rnd 8: * sc 4, inc, repeat from * around (36);
Rnd 9: * sc 5, inc, repeat from * around (42);
Rnd 10: sc 3, (inc, sc 6) x5, inc, sc 3 (48);
Rnd 11: working BLO, sc 24, switch to white and sc 24 (48);
     Don’t break off the blue or you’ll have to keep rejoining it – carry it behind the white.
Rnd 12: stop working BLO, switch back to blue and carry the white, (sc 6, dec) x3, switch to white and carry the blue, (sc 6, dec) x3, break off white (42);
 Rnd 13: with blue, sc around (42);

Rnd 18: sc around (25);
Rnd 19: * sc 4, inc, repeat from * around (30);
     You should be seeing the neck take shape and you can begin stuffing the head now. Be mindful of how you stuff and do a bit of soft sculpting to get the head shaped right. It should be sort of flat with a point in the middle where the eyes will be. Continue stuffing as you go.

FREE Crochet Pattern - The Fox Plush from The Little Prince

UPDATE 2/8/23: Formatting got weird when I change my blog theme and I have now fixed it!     UPDATED: 10/3/22, for clarity!   You can now get a printable PDF version of this as a PAY WHAT YOU WANT pattern on my Ko-Fi here .     The finished Fox is about 23" from nose to tail. My gauge was approx. 4 sts/inch and 4 rows/inch and I chose to stuff the body and tail rather loosely, legs a bit more firm, but it's up to you. I like a floppy Fox. In The Little Prince (the Netflix movie version), Plushy Fox has orange ears with white inside and the black just around the edge. I chose to make my original Foxes (pictured to the right) with just black ears for silly aesthetic reasons, but you can easily sub in your orange for the backs of your Fox's ears. The new Fox I made had movie-accurate ears (below).   If you're not a crafty-type person, you stumbled across this pattern, and you want a Fox, don't hesitate to message me via Facebook . I'm pretty frie...
