Crochet Derpy Tiger + Sussie Magpie Pattern

Crochet Derpy Tiger + Sussie Magpie Pattern

Some projects are just a make, and then there are the ones you prop on your shelf and grin at every time you walk past. Derpy Tiger, with his oversized felt eyes and goofy fanged grin, is that second kind, and Sussie the Magpie perched nearby with her little hat is the reason you will never make just one. Inspired by Kpop Demon Hunters, this duo brings a whole lot of personality to a very manageable project.

• Fabric felt in black, white, yellow, pink, dark pink (Derpy) and black and yellow (Sussie)
• Fabric glue or adhesive to attach felt pieces
• Black thread or split yarn strands for facial embroidery

Skill Level: Intermediate.

The crochet construction itself is very approachable if you are comfortable working in joined rounds and doing basic color changes. The felt detail work, including the layered eyes, stripe pieces, and paw pads, takes patience and sharp scissors, but the pattern walks you through every placement with photos so you always know exactly where things go.

Why Crocheters Will Love It:

• Two characters in one purchase means twice the finished-object satisfaction and a built-in companion set
• Joined rounds keep stitch alignment crisp so your color changes and markings land exactly where they should
• Detailed placement photos throughout remove the guesswork from felt assembly, one of the trickiest parts of character amigurumi
• Sizing is fully flexible, swap to a thicker yarn and bigger hook for a larger Derpy, or go smaller for a miniature version
• The hat is designed to be removable so you can give it to Derpy or keep it on Sussie, your call
• Front legs are crocheted directly into the body rather than sewn on, giving a seamless, polished result
• Step-count totals are listed after every round so you always know if you are on track
• The finished pair makes an unmistakable display piece for any fan of the source material

Perfect For:

Intermediate amigurumi makers, Kpop Demon Hunters fans, handmade gift-givers looking for something truly one-of-a-kind, and anyone who wants a character project with serious detail work and a big payoff.

Two characters, one pattern, and a shelf display you will want to show everyone. Start with Derpy, finish with Sussie, and try not to immediately plan a second colorway!
