If you’re like me and love both crochet and cute video game characters, you’re going to adore these two new free Kirby plushie patterns! Just in time for the holiday season, I’ve whipped up two adorable versions of everyone’s favorite pink puffball: Kirby with a festive Santa hat and Kirby dressed as a cozy pumpkin for fall. These easy patterns are perfect for adding some cozy, seasonal vibes to your space or crafting a cute gift for a fellow Kirby fan!
For this pattern, I used Premier Parfait Chunky yarn for a soft pastel look. Click here to get Premier yarn for this project. If you enjoy this pattern, please give me a follow on social media and let me know what other free patterns you would love to see! Also, don’t forget to tag me in your creations on instagram. Happy crocheting 🙂
