11 FREE Amigurumi Patterns for Film Buffs

Transforming a ball of yarn into a recognisable form takes a lot of time, so there's really no point spending hours making a bunny for Auntie Mabel's 60th birthday when it turns out she's really into the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! The beauty of crocheting someone's favourite film character is that you can be sure it will be well-received and chances are you're not the first to think of it, meaning there's probably a pattern already online at little or no cost to you!

Baymax

We can't promise that this Baymax will be as helpful as he was in Big Hero 6, but he's so cute we don't mind.
