Hello and happy crafting! Today, I’m excited to share a Frankenstein-inspired amigurumi doll pattern—the Baby Frankie Monster—that requires no sewing. This adorable crochet toy is small in size but rich in detail. While the design may appear simple at first, it involves multiple colors and parts, so it’s important to follow the pattern carefully to avoid mistakes.

Finishing Touches
The next details are optional!
You can mix and match which details you would like to do, or leave it without (all the versions are equally cute 🙂
1. Use pink yarn to sew blush underneath the eyes
2. Use embroidery thread/black yarn to sew a small mouth
3. Use the same thread to make a suture(s)
I like to place mine above the left eye
