About This Infinity Cube Amigurumi Pattern

This pattern teaches you how to crochet small colored squares, edge them in white, then seam them together into eight little cubes that assemble into an Infinity Cube fidget toy. The finished toy measures about 10 cm using the suggested materials. The technique uses US crochet terms and includes clear notes on corner increases and edging to make crisp cube faces.

You will make 48 squares (8 of each color), connect them into 8 cubes, and then sew cubes together into two parts before final assembly. Photos and a color scheme are provided to guide placement.

Why You'll Love This Infinity Cube Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it turns simple crochet squares into a clever, tactile toy that both kids and adults enjoy twisting and folding. I designed the edging in white to make the colored faces pop and give the cube a neat, finished look. I enjoy how small, repeatable pieces come together into a surprising mechanical toy that encourages fine motor play. Working on many identical squares is meditative, and the assembly is a satisfying puzzle that rewards careful attention to color and seam placement.

Switch Things Up

I love customizing the colors when I make this Infinity Cube; try using two complementary palettes to make each face pop.

If you want a larger cube, I change to a bulkier yarn and a larger hook — the shape becomes chunkier and more tactile.

For a mini keychain version, use finer yarn and a smaller hook and omit stuffing for a flatter toy.

I sometimes embroider simple shapes on the colored faces for names or symbols to make personalized gifts.

You can swap the white edging for a contrasting color to create a different visual effect — dark edging gives a more graphic look.

I often add a small bell or rattle inside one cube for a sensory surprise for babies (ensure secure sewing and safety considerations).

Try using a soft chenille or velvet yarn for a plush, squishy feel — the folding action becomes extra soft and soothing.

I also experiment with different joining methods: slip stitch joins give a flatter seam while sc joins create a raised ridge for clearer seams.

If you want to make a matching set, change the color scheme slightly for each cube to create a coordinated collection of fidget toys.

I recommend testing one cube first to practice seaming and stuffing before committing to all eight cubes for consistent results.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping the white edge row will make seams and joins bulky and unclear; add the white sc edge as instructed to create even seams for sewing. ✗ Overstuffing the cube will deform the faces and prevent proper folding; stuff lightly with holofiber and shape the cube by hand after assembly. ✗ Not counting stitches at the end of each round can cause mismatched edges during seaming; always confirm the stitch count shown in brackets before fastening off. ✗ Connecting squares in the wrong orientation will produce a cube with misaligned colors; follow the cube making scheme and place faces as shown before sewing.

— Notes :

Info :

You can use any yarn and a suitable hook. If you work with other colors than indicated in the pattern, I would recommend you to write down which color you use and which color you are replacing with. The size of the finished toy from the indicated materials is ~10 cm. Pattern is written in US crochet terms.

— Abbreviations :

Infos :

ar - amigurumi ring. sc - single crochet. hdc - half double crochet. inc3 - increase (1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 sc)*in one stitch. ch - chain. sl st - slip stitch. (...) - the number in brackets at the end of the row means the number of stitches in the row. (...)* - repeat n times.

— Materials and tools :

Infos :

Yarn: YarnArt Jeans 75 (blue), YarnArt Jeans 72 (purple), YarnArt Jeans 53 (light green), YarnArt Jeans 23 (carrot), YarnArt Jeans 88 (yellow), YarnArt Jeans 73 (peach), Alize Cotton Gold 55 (white). - Crochet hook № 2. - Holofiber filler. - Sewing needle. - Scissors.

— Square :

Info :

Note! Inc3 - (1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 sc)*in one stitch. All inc3 are in the corners of the square. In the last row (when you work along the edge of the square with white yarn): inc3 - 3 sc in one stitch. Make 8 squares of each color. In total, you should have 48 squares.

Round 1 :

7 sc in ar, sl st, ch (8)

Round 2 :

inc3 in the next stitch (count ch as sc when you count stitches in the rows), (sc, inc3)*3, sl st in ch of the beginning of the row, ch (16)

Round 3 :

inc3 in the next stitch, (3 sc, inc3)*3, 2 sc, sl st in ch of the beginning of the row, ch (24)

Round 4 :

inc3 in the next stitch, (5 sc, inc3)*3, 4 sc, sl st in ch of the beginning of the row (32)

Info :

Fasten off, cut the thread. Hide the end of the thread when you work along the edge of the square with white yarn.

Round 5 :

Attach a white thread to any of the sides of the square and work along the edge of the square with sc, make inc3 in the corners of the square (3 sc (!) in one stitch). Finish with a needle (see photo) and fasten the thread from the inside. As a result - on the sides of the square you should have (7 sc + 3sc (on the tops))*4 ( 40 )

— Cube assembly :

Info :

Now you need to make 8 cubes. Work with sc to connect two squares. When you work in the corners that have already been connected, make addition sl st through sc in the corner to "sharp" the corner. Fasten the thread tails and hide them inside of the cube.

Item Name (Cube making scheme) :

Follow the cube making scheme for color placement: center square color and adjacent face colors are shown in the provided diagram (peach, purple, carrot, blue, light green, yellow). Assemble squares into cube faces according to scheme before final seaming.

Info :

Making sl st in the corner: when connecting edges and corners, use sl st to secure corners and make them sharp. See photos for method of sl st through corner sc to refine the corner shape.

Info :

Attaching the yarn to the corner: attach white yarn at a corner and work along the white edge to join squares, using sc along edges and sl st in corner points where needed.

Info :

When you have one side left open, fill the cube with holofiber. Do not fill tightly (this is important!!!) in order not to deform the cube. After the cube is assembled, give the part the correct shape with your hands.

— Cubes connection :

Part 1 :

Make 2 parts, each of them has 4 cubes. Assemble 4 cubes as shown in the photo. The faces of the same color of all the cubes are directed in the same direction (the photo is signed in which direction and which color). The places where the cubes are sewed together are shown by dashes and arrows. Sew with simple seam "stitch to stitch" in sc of the white yarn row.

Part 2 :

Assemble the second group of 4 cubes mirroring part 1 so that the side faces of the same color of all the cubes are directed in the same direction. Do not sew part 1 and part 2 together yet.

Info :

Now, assemble part 1 and part 2, as in the photo below. The side faces of the same color of all the cubes are directed in the same direction (in the photo it is signed, in which direction which color). The color of the upper and lower faces is the same. At this stage, we do not sew anything.

Info :

At the final stage, we need to turn the toy 180' (two parts at the same time) so that the upper faces are at the bottom. Check the photo below. Sew in places marked with a stroke.

Info :

Your cube is almost ready! Now, to make your cube more dynamic, I advise you to steam it with an iron. Pass the iron along all the faces, giving the cube the correct shape (do not press the iron too much, it can deform the side faces). Pay special attention to the seams between the cubes, apply steam to them several times to make them soft, to make easy to play with the cube.

Info :

Done! Now you can twist it, fold it, turn it! And also - develop imagination, fine motor skills, study colors and shapes with your child. Or just get away from the outside world and calm down. I hope you enjoyed the process of creating this mysterious toy! Happy crocheting!

Assembly Instructions

  • Attach white yarn and work sc around each square edge, making inc3 (3 sc in one stitch) at each corner to create a neat white border before joining squares.
  • Join two squares using single crochet (sc) along the white-edged rows; when working at a corner that has already been connected, add a slip stitch through the corner sc to sharpen the corner.
  • Create 8 cubes by seaming squares together; leave one side open on each cube, stuff lightly with holofiber filler, then close the final side and hide thread tails inside.
  • Assemble the 8 cubes into two groups of four (part 1 and part 2) ensuring faces of the same color are oriented in the same direction, then sew the groups together stitch-to-stitch along the white sc rows where indicated.
  • After assembly, turn both parts 180 degrees together so the upper faces become the bottom, then steam lightly with an iron (do not press) to shape and soften seams.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use consistent tension and count stitches after each round to ensure all squares are identical and edges align for seaming.
  • 💡Do not overstuff the cubes; stuffing too tightly will distort the cube shape and hinder folding.
  • 💡Hide and secure all thread tails inside the cube to prevent them from coming loose during play.
  • 💡Work the white edge carefully and make inc3 at corners to create clean seams for sewing the cubes together.
  • 💡When steaming, use light steam only and avoid pressing to prevent deformation of the faces and seams.

This cute Infinity Cube pattern turns small crochet squares into a magical, movable toy full of color and tactile joy. Perfect as a thoughtful handmade gift or a calming fidget for yourself or a child. The step-by-step instructions and photos make assembly easy, and the results are truly satisfying. 🧶🎁
