Clodsire Crochet Pattern - Pokemon

I’ve been having a lot of fun crocheting all of the new Pokemon from the new Scarlet and Violet games recently, and Clodsire is no exception!

Of course it’s time I share him with you guys, so here’s my Clodsire pokemon crochet pattern!

Clodsire Crochet Pattern Assembly and Needle Felting
Attach the legs to the body – your front legs should be positioned around rnds 8-10 and the back legs should be between rnds 13-15. Make sure to pin them down before attaching so that you can test out how well he’ll sit when he’s done!


The fin on Clodsire’s back should sit right in the middle between rnds 12-21. It’s also helpful to pin this down before sewing to make sure it’s central!


The needle felting for this project is perfect for those of you just starting out. Here are the faces of my grey and strawberry Clodsire to help you create your own! You could also shape them using felt cut-outs.

Clodsire also has six white circles on his back, which can also be needle felted or cut from sheets of felt. Using your white wool roving, follow the picture below for guidance on positioning!
