Wizard Lamb Amigurumi Pattern with Pointed Star Hat

A lamb’s ears must remain visible after the wizard hood closes around its face. This wizard lamb amigurumi pattern uses category 5 chenille yarn, a 4 mm hook and a 36-stitch head to make a seated figure approximately 25 cm tall. The intermediate project combines stable plush construction with a fitted tunic, curved pointed hat and raised crochet stars.

The Design: What Makes This Wizard Lamb Different

The lamb is built around a wide cream face, low horizontal ears and a lavender frame that represents its wool and hood. The muzzle remains shallow so it does not push the embroidered nose too far beyond the eyes. Separate forehead curls cover the upper seam while preserving the rounded lamb silhouette.

The wizard hat begins as a broad cap and narrows gradually into a long point. Several plain rounds are placed between decrease rounds, creating enough length for the tip to bend without forming a hard angle. Its costume body fits over a firm white core, leaving the hands and feet exposed. A frequent failure in a purple sheep amigurumi is attaching the ears after the hood. That order traps the ear bases beneath thick chenille stitches and produces uneven placement.

Assembly

1. Sew the head to the narrow end of the body. Add stuffing through the final 3 cm of the neck seam until the head remains upright.
2. Center the muzzle below the eyes and attach it with small stitches. Embroider a brown triangular nose approximately 10 mm wide, one vertical line and two mouth curves.
3. Attach the cheek patches below and slightly outside the eyes. Keep each patch approximately two stitches from the muzzle edge.
4. Pin the ears between R9 and R14 of the head. Angle their flattened bases slightly downward before sewing them in place.
5. Dress the body in the wizard tunic. Attach the front costume point at the lower center and secure the upper edge beneath the neck seam.
6. Sew the arms to the upper body through the tunic. Position the legs at the lower front with one or two stitches between them.
7. Fit the hood base over the head, leaving the ears outside the opening. Sew its rear section to the head and arrange the five curls above the face.
8. Attach the pointed hat to the hood. Match its 36-stitch lower edge to the cap and sew through one full stitch from each layer.
9. Sew the large and small stars to the hat without pulling their points inward. Attach the second large star to the bent tip with three short stitches.
10. Add the hood ties, sew the tail to the lower back and weave every yarn end through at least 4 cm of dense fabric before trimming.

The completed wizard lamb should sit on both rear feet while the bent hat remains centered above the face.

7 Technical Tips

• Hidden stitch-marker failure: Chenille fibers can cover the first stitch and create an accidental 35-stitch round. Count each 36-stitch plateau before moving the locking marker.
• Soft neck collapse: The long hat places extra weight above the face. Pack the upper 2 cm of the body until it resists finger pressure without stretching the stitches.
• Visible decrease gaps: Ordinary decreases can expose filling on the head and body. Work all decreases through the front loops and keep the working loop close to the 4 mm hook shaft.
• Late eye installation: The 16 mm safety-eye washers become difficult to fit after the head decreases below 24 stitches. Install both eyes immediately after R16 and test their spacing before locking them.
• Chenille tension change: One tight round can reduce the head circumference by more than 1 cm. Compare R8 through R14 against each other and redo any round that visibly narrows.
• Off-center hat pinning: A lower edge shifted by three stitches makes the tip lean from the wrong point. Mark the center front of the hood and hat band before joining them.
• Loose tail weaving: Chenille ends can pull free when buried in only one direction. Pass each tail through 4 cm of fabric, reverse through a neighboring round and trim it inside the stuffed section.

Finishing the Wizard Lamb

Set the figure on a level surface and inspect the face, ears and hat before closing any remaining seams. Both eyes should sit at the same height, the muzzle must remain centered, and equal portions of each ear should extend beyond the hood. Check the hat from the rear as well; its lower edge should not pull the head toward one shoulder. Record the yarn label, 4 mm hook and completed height with a small yarn sample for the next project.
