Why You'll Love This Train Loris Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it combines playful design with solid construction—every piece is made to last. I enjoy how modular the build is, which makes sewing and customizing the train a breeze. The logs and wagon add a tactile, interactive element kids adore, and the tiny surface details bring the whole project to life.

Switch Things Up

I love how easy it is to change the look by swapping colors; try pastel shades for a soft baby-friendly version or bold primaries for a vintage toy look.

I often make the train larger by switching to a bulkier yarn and a larger hook; this creates a cuddly chunky toy perfect for younger children.

To make a tiny keychain-sized train, use fingering yarn and a 1.75mm hook and reduce stuffing for a miniature result.

I sometimes replace the wire handle with a short wooden dowel or remove the wire for a completely soft wagon if the toy is for infants.

You can embroider or felt small details like numbers, logos or faces on the engine to give it personality and a storytelling element.

I like adding tiny crocheted accessories like a conductor figure or small fabric cargo to create a play set with more interaction.

If you want posable wheels, insert a thin dowel through the axle and secure ends; test alignment before final sewing for smooth rotation.

Try changing the logs to little presents or pumpkins for seasonal variations—same technique, different colors and decorative stitching.

I recommend experimenting with different stuffing levels to alter firmness; light stuffing makes a squishier toy while firmer stuffing keeps shape for display.

Finally, I often group several colorways as a matching set (engine + two wagons) — it makes a great gift bundle and lets you get creative with coordinated palettes.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping the stitch counts during increases and decreases will cause uneven shaping; always count stitches each round and mark the start of the round to stay accurate. ✗ Overstuffing or understuffing parts like the chassis will distort the shape and make assembly difficult; stuff gradually while crocheting and aim for firm but flexible filling. ✗ Not hiding yarn tails properly can leave visible knots and loose ends; weave in or hide thread ends as you go and trim excess after finishing pieces. ✗ Failing to switch to BLO where indicated will change the final texture and fit of parts; follow BLO instructions exactly and check photos for reference.

Assembly Instructions

  • Sew both ends of each axle into the center of two wheel rounds, matching photos and ensuring wheels spin if desired; use the long yarn tails to secure and hide ends.
  • Attach the square part of the chassis to the tubular chassis by aligning the open stuffing area, stuffing firmly, and sewing through the picked-up remaining stitches to close securely.
  • Position and sew the roof onto the chassis aligning the back edge with the top rounds, then add the red front part and secure with whipstitch for a neat seam.
  • Roll the top chimney piece and sew its ends closed, insert into the chimney base, then sew the chimney assembly to the front top of the chassis securely.
  • Sew four wheels beneath the wagon subfloor in even spacing, then place and secure the stacked logs onto the wagon and attach the rope with the button closure at one end.
  • Sew windows, star and lamps into their positions on the chassis using photos as guides; hide all yarn tails and reinforce high-stress joins with extra stitches.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use stitch markers to mark the beginning of each round to maintain consistent round count and avoid accidentally missing increases or decreases.
  • 💡Do not overstuff small parts like wheels or lamps; use a small amount of fiberfill so pieces keep their shape and sew cleanly.
  • 💡When combining two sides by single crochet (for chain-started rectangles), keep edges aligned and tension even to avoid puckering.
