How to make the dc cluster
I am using a larger size crochet hook just for demonstration purposes. You will want to use a smaller crochet hook to make an amigurumi. Tip - the dc cluster is made all in the same stitch. Yarn over, insert hook through stitch, pull yarn through, yarn over and pull through the top two stitches. You should have two loops remaining.
Repeat the steps above, you should have 3 loops remaining.
Repeat the first steps again, you should have 4 loops remaining.
Yarn over and pull through all 4 loops.
Dc cluster is completed! I hope you enjoyed this crochet pattern! If you have any questions feel free to contact me at any time! Please do not claim this pattern as your own, I do not mind if you sell the finished product but do not sell this pattern as your own.
