Pattern Notes Abbreviations
This pattern is best suited for an Mr: Magic Ring
intermediate crocheter. While the pieces are Sc: Single Crochet
not particularly hard to create, they require Slst: Slip Stitch
the knowledge of basic amigurumi, working Inc: Sc Increase
in rounds, embroidering facial details, and HDC: Half-Double
LOTS of sewing. Crochet
The yarn color and type are not important, BLO: Back Loops
as long as you adjust your hook size for the Only
yarn you're working with, that'll work! Eye FLO: Front Loops
size is a personal preference, feel free to Only
choose a size that suits you. Dec: Sc Decrease
The “x whatever #” after the parentheses Ch: Chain
indicates that you should repeat what is in FO: Finish Off
the parentheses that many times.
The number at the end of each round in
parentheses is the stitch count. This signifies
how many stitches you should have at the
end of that round.
Please Note
You do not need to use the exact same yarn that I have used. You are more than
welcome to use any yarn type and color, just make sure you adjust your hook to
your yarn type. All yarn listed below is Himalaya Dolphin Baby. Also, while I do
show you where to sew things to get the same look as my Roary, feel free to play
around with placment of pieces to customize and create your own look if desired!

Dec, turn your work, Sc, Dec, turn your
work, Dec, then Ch1. Now Slst down the left
side of the point and then continue to create the
next three points following the steps above.
There are 20 stitches in you magic ring, so
the base of each star point should be 5 stitches.
FO with first star piece and make your
second piece but do not finish off. Now you
may chose to sew the two pieces together if
you wish or crochet them together. I
crocheted mine together, and at the top of
each point I Sc, then Ch1, then Sc and
continued crocheting down the side of the
star. I stuffed my star lightly, but you may
choose to leave it unstuffed if preferred. Once
you are finished you will leave a long tail
for sewing and use your needle or hook to
pull the yarn you will sew with through the
center of the star as it will be sewed to the
tail from the middle center.
A S S E M B L Y
Start by sewing the head to the body. For a snuggler, I like the body flat, and placed
towards the back of the head so it leaves room for the arms to be sewn on in front. If
you’re making a plushie you can keep the neck open and rounded and then sew the arms on
the front of the body or on the sides. I like the arms sewn on right where the head and
neck meet, regardless of if they are on the side or in front. Next, sew the black neck tuft
on at the head and neckline directly in front of the arms. After this you will sew the
yellow face tufts to the head. Sew them on with one of the yellow tufts slightly overlapping
the black neck tuft, and then the other yellow tuft angled up, slightly framing the face.
A S S E M B L Y
Now, sew the legs on to the body each being place a few stitches away from the original starting
magic ring. Flip Roary over and attach the tail. I placed mine in the middle of the black section of
the body. After this, sew the black tail tuft directly where the tail meets the body, it should have
the center point of the tuft in the middle above the tail and should be wrapping around the tail. It
probably will not connect on the underside of the tail and that is fine. Now you can attach your tail
star to the end of the tail with the piece of yarn you pulled up through the center of the star when
you made it. Sew it to the tail with the tail directly in the middle of the star. Next you will sew
the inner ear pieces on the ears. This is where the long tails from each section of the inner ear piece
come in handy. Pull those through the ear to secure it in place, then sew the inner ear piece onto
the middle of the ear. After you finish, hide the tails inside the ear.
A S S E M B L Y
Now, sew the ears to each side of the
head. You will use the yarn you pulled
through the side of the ear when
creating it to sew it on. I sewed mine at
rounds 8-13 about 3-4 stitches back
from the eyes. Lastly the 2 head tufts
will be sewn on the head. The big tuft
will be sewn on directly on top of the
magic ring with the increases facing the
back of the head, and then the small
tuft will be sewn directly in front of
that. I like to take my yarn tail from
the small tuft and sew the two tufts
together about halfway up the tufts to
make them look like one piece.
