Magneton Amigurumi Pattern
It was only a matter of time before I created a Magneton, seeing as I could pretty much just use my Magnemite pattern to crochet it. It’s basically all the same pieces, just multiply by three (ish).
This was a really fun project to take on! I love creating new patterns from scratch, but sometimes crochet-maths & the constant crochet/unravelling to get the right shape can be a bit tiring. And with this project I didn’t really have to think!
In this post you’ll find links to my original Magnemite blog post, the YouTube pattern videos and some pictures that will show you the transformation from a ball of yarn to Magneton.
There’s no time for rambling on, let’s get started!
YARN & HOOK
2mm hook
Stylecraft Special DK in Silver
3 x 6mm Black safety eyes
Wire – I use a 1.2mm jewellery wire. It was the sturdiest, but also bendable, option I could find at my local craft store
White, Red and Blue felt
Scissors
Toy filling
Clear PVA glue or a glue gun*
Pins to place pieces together before sewing
Needle
Stitch markers (I prefer using scrap yarn as “stitch markers”)
STITCHES & ABBREVIATIONS – UK ENGLISH

bldc back loop double crochet; working your double crochets in the back loops only

THE PATTERN
Below you will see the parts you will need to crochet to make a Magneton. All these pieces can be found in my Magnemite pattern. Click here for the original blog post and links to the pattern videos on my channel.
HEAD & BODY
Yarn: Silver
Make three head & bodies. (Found in “Magnemite Amigurumi Pattern Part One”)
MAGNETS
Yarn: Silver
Make six magnets. (Found in “Magnemite Amigurumi Pattern Part Two”)
RED & BLUE FELT - MAGNETS
Cut out 6 x blue and 6 x red felt pieces for your magnets. Use your PVC glue or glue gun to attach one of each colour to each of the magnets you’ve created. (Found in “Magnemite Amigurumi Pattern Part Two”)
TOP SCREW
I actually amended the pattern slightly from what I made in my Magnemite pattern, and will share that in a video coming soon. For now you can use the magnet in the Magnemite pattern. (Found in “Magnemite Amigurumi Pattern Part Three”)
Yarn: Silver
Make three top screws, one for each head & body
FRONT SCREWS
Same as above - the front screws on my Magneton are slightly amended from my Magnemite pattern. But until I share the updates you can use the ones I made in my Magnemite pattern. (Found in “Magnemite Amigurumi Pattern Part Three””)
Yarn: Silver
Make four top screws. Two for the head & body that goes in the middle, and one for each of the head & body to the sides.
ASSEMBLY
Once all the above pieces have been crocheted, attach all the screws in the right places. I would recommend using some wire to attach the bodies together so that Magneton holds its shape. Once the bodies have been sewn together, attach all the magnets. Once all the sewing is complete, glue down the white felt.
