Hello everyone! Well this is by far one of my favorite patterns I’ve ever made, a root beer float! What I love most about this amigurumi pattern is how there’s so many faces on this 1 amigurumi. When I was making it I was thinking “You get a smile, you get a smile, and you get a smile!” Lol 🙂 So yeah – plenty of cute details on this one amigurumi. And though this is a root beer, you could definitely modify it to be a beer. Just crochet responsibly if you do that haha. (Just make the brown part of the mug in a mustard yellow, make the foam in white, and don’t make the ice cream, whipped cream, and straw). Anyhoo, hope you like this new pattern!

And below is a picture of the full free food bundle:

Smile:

In Black Embroidery thread

The smile is made the same for both of the ice creams and the mug itself. Follow the instructions below to make a smile for each one.

Insert needle with thread one stitch over from the right eye, then pull needle out one stitch over from the left eye as shown (Pic 1). Reinsert needle into the original insertion spot, and pull needle out where shown, making sure the needle lands ABOVE the thread (Pic 2). Reinsert needle into the same spot, this time making sure the needle lands BELOW the yarn as shown (Pic 3). Tie the tail ends of yarn firmly into knots and bring into the ice cream/mug to hide.
