How to crochet a Rubber Chicken Amigurumi?
Feet and legs :
With the orange yarn and the 4 mm hook.
Work in rounds, do not turn unless specified. If needed, use a stitch marker for the first stitch of each round.
We are starting with the toes.
Make the first two toes as follow:
- Round 1: start 6 sc in a magic ring (6)
- Rounds 2 to 4: sc in all (6)
Make 1 sl st in the next st, cut the yarn
Make the third toe as follow:
- Round 1: start 6 sc in a magic ring (6)
- Rounds 2 to 4: sc in all (6)
Do not make a sl st, Do not cut the yarn. We are now going to attach all the toes together.
- Round 5:
1 sc in the next 3 st.
Now make 1 sc in 1 st of the second toe (see pictures below if you need help – by doing this, you will join the first two toes), make 1 sc in the 2 next st.
Now make 1 sc in 1 st of the third toe (by doing this, you will join the last toe), 1 sc in the next 5 st.
Make 1 sc in the next 3 st (they should be the 3 st of the second toe)
Make 1 sc in the next 3 st (they should be the 3 st of the first toe)
Your 5th round is now complete, all the toes are attached. (18)
- Round 6: (1 sc in the next st, 1 dec) x6. (12)
We are now working in rows to make the heel of the foot.
- Row 7: 1 sc in the next 6 st. (6)
- Row 8: ch1, turn; 1 sc in the next 6 st. (6)
- Row 9: ch1, turn; 1 sc in the next 6 st. (6)
- Row 10: ch1, turn; 1 sc in the next 6 st. (6)
We are now going to work in rounds again.
- Round 11: ch1, turn: 1 sc in the next 6 st. Now make 3 sc evenly along the side of the rows we made previously. Make 1 sc in the next 6 st. Make 3 sc evenly along the other side of the rows we made previously. Your round 10 of 18 stitches is now completed. (see the pictures below if you need help).
Stuff the toes.
- Round 12: [1 sc in next 6 st, 2 dec, 1 sc in the next 4 st, 2 dec]. (14)
- Round 13: [1 sc in next 6 st, 1 dec, 1 sc in the next 4 st, 1 dec]. (12)
- Round 14: [1 sc in next 2 st, 1 dec] x3. (9)

Your first leg is done. Cut the yarn.
Stuff the leg.
Make a second leg exactly like you made the first one.
Body and head :
With the red yarn and the 4 mm hook
Work in rounds, do not turn unless specified. If needed, use a stitch marker for the first stitch of each round.
- Round 1: start 6 sc in a magic ring (6)
- Round 2: inc 6 times (12)
We are now going to join the leg to our circle. The circle will be between both legs. (please note that the circle in the pictures is bigger than yours, do not worry about it, I just realized that the circle was too big after taking the pictures. And I forgot to take new pictures. Sorry about that. Follow the written instructions and only use the pictures to help you.
- Round 3:
1 sc in the next 3 st.
Join the left leg with 3 st: Decide where you want to join the leg (the stitch you choose will determine the position of the leg (foot toward the inside, in the middle or toward the outside). You can see on the picture below where I decided to join the leg. Then insert your hook in this stitch and in the next stitch of your circle, make 1 sc.
Make 1 sc in the next 2 st of your leg and your circle (exactly like you did for the first st). Your leg is now joined by 3 stitches.
Make 1 sc in the next 3 st of your circle.
Join the second leg. As previously, decide where you want to join the leg. You can see on the picture below where I decided to join the leg. Then insert your hook in this stitch and in the next stitch of your circle, make 1 sc.
Make 1 sc in the next 2 st of your leg and your circle (exactly like you did for the first st). Your second leg is now joined by 3 stitches.
I am aware this part might be a bit difficult. If you need any help, more explanations or more pictures, do not hesitate to contact me!

I love how easy your pattern is to read and follow along! I also love all the pictures to follow along with the process. Looks like a super fun pattern to try! 🙂
Thank you very much Heather!
I am struggling with the feathers, I am not understanding how to do them. Do I fold the small round or leave them open flat? I hope you can help. The rest of the pattern was so easy abs quick.
Thanks
Hi, I am so sorry for my late reply, I had to take a little break from my blog. Let me know if you still need some help.
Why won’t the squeaky chicken print. Says it’s free but when i try print it says not shareable. Don’t even see a place to buy it. Please help me with this problem. Thank you, Judy
Hi, I just added a printable version (without pictures) at the end of the page. Let me know if it works!
Worked perfect
Thank you .
You are very welcome.
Thank you!
How do you insert squeakers d[you just put them in surrounded with stuffing or do the have to be sewed in. Thank you . My first time using squeakers
Hi, I just put them inside the stuffing.
Where do buy the squeaker? Thank you. I love your clear instructions. I look forward to making this for my friend.
I bought them on Amazon but I recently saw some at my local craft store too. You can search for “Squeaker replacement” or “squeaker for dog toys” Thank you for your nice words!
Hello, I’m having trouble understanding the toes. When joining does the 6 sc only goes across the first 2 toes?
Hello, sorry for my late reply. you will have to do 3 sc in the 3rd toe, 3 sc in the second toe, 6 sc in the first toe, then 3 sc in the 3 remaining st of 2nd toe, and 3 sc in the 3 remaining st of the 3rd toe. Does this help?
HELP please 🙏
I am stuck on Rnd 4 of the body , but maybe I stuffed up on joining the ring to the legs .
But I have undone it and will wait for a reply as to how this part is done.
my count doesn’t add up and from the photos , it looks like you crochet the whole way around the ring before crocheting around the both the legs also ? but it doesn’t mention this in the instructions .
Hi, thank you for reaching out! Sorry for the delay. I will try my best to help you. Please let me know if your are still stuck after my explanations.
At the end of Round 2 of the body, you should have: a circle of 12 st and 2 legs with 12 st as well. In Round 3 of the body, you will join the circle to the legs as follow: 1 sc in 3 st of the circle, 1 sc in 3 st of both circle and a leg, 1 sc in 3 st of the circle, 1 sc in 3 st of both circle and 2nd leg. The 9 remaning st of the legs will stay unworked at this time. I added a drawing to the pattern, let me know if it helps. On Round 4, you shouldn’t work on the 6 sc (3 sc in each side) you made to join the legs. You will only work on the 9 remaining stitches of the legs (x2) and the 3 stitches of the circles (x2) – so you will have a total of 24 st (9 + 3 + 9 +3). Let me know if it helps!
