Why You'll Love This Mario Bros & Co. Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it captures the playful charm of Mario and Luigi while remaining approachable for crocheters with some experience. I enjoy adding small character details like the moustache and embroidered cap letter because they bring personality to each doll. The pattern is thoughtfully written so you can see progress quickly and make adjustments as you go. I created it to be a delightful weekend project that results in keepsakes perfect for gifting or display.

Switch Things Up

I love how easy it is to customize these characters by changing colors or accessories; try pastel palettes for a soft, modern look or bold shades for a classic feel.

Want a smaller version? Use a thinner yarn and a smaller hook to create miniature keychain-sized dolls perfect for gift tags.

Make them larger and cuddlier by switching to a bulkier yarn and a larger hook for a plush, huggable toy.

I often add tiny crocheted props like a mushroom or star to give each doll extra personality and play value.

Try embroidering different facial expressions to change the mood — a slightly curved mouth or eyebrow placement can make a big difference.

For a more secure finish on hats and small details, I sew pieces rather than gluing; fabric glue is a quick alternative if you prefer fewer stitches.

I like to experiment with safety eye sizes to create cuter or more realistic looks; 6-8mm works well for these proportions.

Add wire lightly inside limbs if you want posable arms and a sturdier stance, but keep it optional for a squishier doll.

Use felt or tiny buttons instead of crocheted buttons for a different texture on the overalls; glue or sew them in place depending on the finishing you want.

Don't be afraid to make gender-neutral or custom characters by mixing elements — swap moustaches for beards or add flowers and ribbons for unique designs.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping stitch markers at the start of rounds will make counting difficult; place a marker at the first stitch of every round to track your rows. ✗ Overstuffing the head or body causes lumps and distortions; stuff gradually in small amounts while shaping to maintain smooth curves. ✗ Forgetting to change colors at indicated rounds will ruin the look of the outfit; change yarn exactly where the pattern instructs and weave ends neatly inside. ✗ Not placing safety eyes at the correct rounds results in misaligned features; insert safety eyes between the rounds specified and count stitches between eyes carefully. ✗ Pulling stitches too tight when decreasing can create puckering; maintain even, moderate tension and use the same tension across pieces to match gauge.

— Notes & Techniques :

Infos :

Don't forget to use a stitch marker in the first stitch on where the round starts so you can keep track. Keep notes to keep track of the round numbers. Read all the instructions before starting to crochet.

Info :

Magic ring: Crochet the first round of stitches into an adjustable loop. Then, pull the loop tight to close the hole in the middle of your first round. 1. Loop the yarn around your fingers forming an 'X' (I use 2). 2. Insert the hook and pull the thread below the thread to create a loop. 3. Chain st. 4. Make stitches into the ring. 5. Tighten the ring.

Info :

Closing it up: 1. Fasten off and leave long yarn to close the part that we're crocheting. 2. Using a needle, bring it under the back chain of the stitch only, repeat until you close it. 3. Pull the yarn end to tighten and close the hole. 4. Hide the end inside the amigurumi and cut what's left.

Info :

Embroider a letter M on the circle with red color. The white circle can be sewed to the cap (use the photo as guidance) or you can glue it.

— Assemble :

1) Arms: Attach arms at Round 10 of the body, make sure they are even apart. Fasten off and hide the end.

2) Overall :

Start at the back, make 1sc in the next 7st in the front ch of Round 9 of the Body, 6ch and go to the front of the Body where you'll make 1sc in the next 7st, 6ch and end at the back of the body (use the photo as guidance). Fasten off and you can sew the bottom of the body together if needed. Fasten off and hide the end. Place the yellow buttons at the front of the overall, you can do it with fabric glue or you can sew them.

3) Eyes :

Using blue and white color thread, you'll outline the eyes, first with blue and then with white. On top of the eyes, use a black color thread to outline the eye. Use the picture as guidance. Hide the ends.

4) Moustache :

First, always use pins to see how it'll look. Then, you'll sew the moustache just below the eyes. Only sew the top of the moustache. Fasten off and hide the end.

5) Nose :

Place the nose at the center between the eyes above the moustache. Sew it to the face, fasten off and hide the ends.

6) Ears :

First you'll need to use pins to place the hair, so you can know where the ears go. They must be behind the sideburns, for me it was about 4st apart from the moustache. Before placing them, fold them in half and join them together. Once you place the ears, sew them to the head, fasten off and hide the ends.

7) Hair :

Once the ears are sewed, place the hair again. With the thread you left, start at the back of the head and sew it, use the same thread to embroider the eyebrows. Don't sew the front of the hair, instead use fabric glue to the front and sideburns.

8) Cap :

Put on the cap, and he's ready!

Fasten off and you can sew the bottom of the body together if needed. Fasten off and hide the end. Place the yellow buttons at the front of the overall, you can do it with fabric glue or you can sew them.

3) Eyes :

Using blue and white color thread, you'll outline the eyes, first with blue and then with white. On top of the eyes, use a black color thread to outline the eye. Use the picture as guidance. Hide the ends.

4) Moustache & Nose :

First, always use pins to see how it'll look. Then, you'll sew the moustache just below the eyes. Only sew the middle of the moustache at the bottom layer. Fasten off and hide the end. Place the nose at the center between the eyes above the moustache. Sew it to the face, fasten off and hide the ends.

5) Ears :

They must be behind the sideburns, about 4st apart from the moustache. Fold them in half and join them together, place and sew to the head. Fasten off and hide ends.

6) Hair :

Once the ears are sewed, place the hair again. With the thread you left, start at the back of the head and sew it, use the same thread to embroider the eyebrows. Don't sew the front of the hair, instead use fabric glue to the front and sideburns.

7) Cap :

Put on the cap, and he's ready!

Assembly Instructions

  • Attach arms at Round 10 (Mario) or Round 11 (Luigi) of the body, making sure they are evenly spaced; fasten off and hide the ends.
  • Create the overall by working into the front loops of Round 9 of the body, make the strap chains and secure across the front; fasten off and sew bottom of body together if needed and attach the yellow buttons at the front of the overall.
  • Position safety eyes between rounds 9-10 with 8 stitches between them; outline the eyes by stitching blue then white thread and use black thread to accent the top for a finished look.
  • Pin the moustache below the eyes and sew only the top sections to secure; place the nose centered above the moustache and stitch firmly, hiding all tails.
  • Fold the ears in half and join before sewing behind the sideburns (about 4 stitches from the moustache); after sewing, attach hair and sideburn pieces and secure front hair with fabric glue if desired.
  • Sew the hair piece to the head using the long tail, embroider eyebrows with matching yarn, and finally place and secure the cap with the embroidered letter circle on top.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use stitch markers to keep track of round starts, especially when working long sequences of single crochet.
  • 💡Stuff parts gradually and evenly; overstuffing can change shapes while understuffing leaves gaps.
  • 💡Pin pieces in place before final sewing to check placement and symmetry across features.
  • 💡Weave in yarn tails as you go to keep the finished doll neat and reduce finishing time.

FAQs

What size will the finished piece be?

Can I use different yarn weights for this pattern?

Yes, you can use different yarn weights but the final size will change; adjust your hook size accordingly and be prepared to change stuffing amounts to keep proportions correct.

Do I need prior crochet experience for this pattern?

This pattern is rated intermediate; basic knowledge of single crochet, increases, decreases, working in rounds, and simple color changes is recommended.

How long does this project typically take to complete?

Most crocheters complete each doll in about 5-7 hours, though time may vary depending on experience level and how much detail or customization you add.

Can I glue the cap emblem instead of sewing it?

Yes, the white circle emblem can be sewn or glued to the cap; fabric glue works well if you want a quick finish, but sewing is more secure for items that will be handled frequently.
