Shy Guy Amigurumi Pattern
My partner had a request from one of his twitter friends to make a Shy Guy. They really love this character from Super Mario Brothers and he wanted it for his daughter. I believe it turned out well and now I'm offering this pattern for other people to make him. Unless otherwise stated, work in continuous rounds. Also, I assume that you have basic knowledge in crochet. If not there are many tutorials on YouTube. Good luck!

Assembly:
1) Cut out the shapes from black felt for the eyes and mouth of the Shy Guy. The eyes will be large ovals and the mouth will be a smaller circle. Sew the eyes and mouth onto the face. 2) Attach the face to the body with the tail from the face. I just weaved in and out of each piece with the tail. Stuff the face portion lightly to give it some definition.
3) Attach the strap to the head using the tail from the strap. Ensure the that ends of the strap are positioned in the middle of the face on either side. I used a whip stitch to sew the strap down all around the head. 3) Using the tail from the top of the head sew down the robe flap as seem in the picture. It may require flattening the stuffing out of this piece before sewing it down properly. 4) Attach the arms to the body with the tails from each piece. I used a whip stitch again. Pin all the limbs in the desired position before attaching.

5) Attach the belt to the waist of the body. This will hide the surface crochet used to create the bottom of the robe. I used a whip stitch to attach the belt strap all around the body. 6) Attach the buckle over the belt. Ensure that it is centered when looking at Shy Guy face on. I used a whip stitch and the tail from the buckle to sew it all the way around. Now it's complete! Hope you enjoyed making this!
