Let’s get started!
This goose is tons of fun to make! With this pattern you can make a regular goose, or add a bonnet and bow to make a mother goose! The tiny ducks you see pictured on the first page are not included in this pattern. Those are ducks made from my “20 minute duck” pattern, which you can find free on my website here.
For the goose, we will start by making the head and working our way down to the body. The head, neck, and body are all made in one continuous piece. After this, we will make the nose, feet, wings, and bonnet/bow. Let’s start making this cute goose!

Thank you so much, it’s work is beautiful, thank you, you teach very good… Hello from Guatemala
Another great pattern! Thank you.
Thank you for another great pattern. I really like this goose. Your patterns are so easy to follow with all the pictures.
Thanks a lot for this very nice goose – may be – it’s a duck when crochet a short neck 😉
hi hi is there a way to get this pattern ?
Thank you
Grazie, sei molto brava e le spiegazioni sono fatte molto bene, un grazie e un caro saluto dall’Italia.
Could you explain what it means to SC in next 7 st,repeat *dec,SC in next three xfive.single in next four.
Hermoso el pato quisiera la traducción de : sc, st etc.,gracias
my interpretation is that you do 7 single crochets, then you do a {decrease stitch (skip one stitch and then single crochet) then regular single crochet in the next three stitches}x5, after this you finish the round with 4 sc. hope this helps
What does Inc mean in the pattern directions. Thank you.
Inc means increase which is two single crochet in the SAME stitch.
i love this pattern. you are a genius when making these patterns. thank you so much for sharing. happy crocheting
Would you be able to turn this into a mother duck? Maybe redesign the beak?
Hello i was wondering if you could help me understand round 26 onthe head and body. If possible. Thanks
I wanted to know why the little geese are shown and it says goose and mother goose? I paused for the pdf thinking the baby would be there and it is not.
i think they are 20 min duck’s you will find them in farm animals…i think
This is so lovely!❣️but can you tell me what to do to make it stand up in a good position and not fall
Love this pattern, but the feet don’t turn out the way pictured. Still look cute, but don’t look webbed.
I figured it out! thanks
I made this cute goose, but it wants to fall forward. Did you weight the bottom somehow?
Hi Martha! If your amigurumi falls forward, you can place plastic pellets inside a sachet, then place the sachet inside the amigurumi’s lower half. I use Poly-Pellets, which I buy from JoAnn Fabrics and they work well. You can also use something like a rock to weigh it down. If you already finished off your amigurumi, you’ll have to undo the last ~4 rounds to place the sachet in.
I hope this helps!
Thank you so much for this lovely pattern of this super cute mother goose.
i love how you’ve done it’s back you’re so smart
