Meet the coziest strawberry you will ever crochet. My Sweet Strawberry is a big, squishy amigurumi plush in soft chunky chenille yarn — pink with little white seeds and a bright green stem and leaves on top. It is the kind of make you hug, gift, and keep on your bed.

It is an easy pattern, worked in simple single crochet with a 10 mm hook, so the stitches are big and quick. The full step-by-step pattern is available as a printable PDF in my Etsy shop.

Why You Will Love This Strawberry

  • It is beginner friendly. Only single crochet, increases and decreases, worked in a spiral.
  • It is quick. Super bulky yarn and a 10 mm hook make every round fly by.
  • It is so soft. Chenille blanket yarn gives the plush that squishy, velvety feel.
  • It makes a sweet gift for kids, teens, a strawberry lover or a cozy bedroom.

What You Need

  • Super bulky (6) chenille yarn, like Bernat Blanket, in pink, green and white — less than one skein of each color
  • A 10 mm crochet hook (see my hook sizes chart for US and UK sizes)
  • Fiberfill stuffing
  • A yarn needle, a stitch marker and scissors

How It Comes Together

The strawberry starts at its pointy tip with a magic ring and grows round by round in a spiral. The shaping is what gives it that perfect strawberry silhouette — pointy at the bottom, round and full at the top.

Then you stuff it nice and firm and close the top so the yarn tail hides inside.

Little White Seeds

The seeds are tiny V shapes embroidered in white yarn with a needle, scattered all over the body. No extra crochet — just a few minutes of stitching that instantly turns a pink ball into a strawberry.

The Stem and Leaves

The stem and its five leaves are crocheted in one single piece in green, then sewn on top over the closed hole. Leave the leaves free and they curl naturally, just like a real strawberry top.
