We’re so excited to share our Unicorn crochet pattern Kawaii Cuddler® with you! From her beautiful mane to her regal horn, she is sure to delight the unicorn lover in your life! We can’t wait to see which colors you choose!
Here are some fun facts we found about the Unicorn while researching our pattern:
- The Unicorn’s eyes are Sky Blue or Purple.
- Unicorns can be of any color, from Jet-Black, Brown to a dazzling Gold.
- A baby unicorn is called a sparkle.
She is happy to join her animal friends Fox Kawaii Cuddler®, Flamingo Kawaii Cuddler®, Kangaroo Kawaii Cuddler®.
This is a beginner level pattern. The techniques you will need to know are single crochet, single crochet increase, single crochet decrease, half double crochet, and double crochet. Our finished project is 13″ x 9″ using the recommended hook size. You are welcome to go up or down a hook size to create a different dimension. You can even hold two pieces of yarn together with a larger hook to create a giant cuddler. The sky is the limit!
If you’ve never worked one of our Kawaii Cuddler® patterns, they are geared towards beginners. You will work two flat pieces and single crochet them together to finish the piece. Even if you’ve never been able to crochet from a pattern before, we’re confident you can create with a 3amgracedesigns pattern. We encourage you to join our Facebook Group where we remain active helping with questions! We love passing our love for the craft on to others!

Hi I am trying to do this unicorn pattern but I do not understand Row 24. Am I supposed to make a chain of 40? Please explain. Thank you.
Hi Lisa!
At the end of Row 23, you are Chaining 20. For Row 24, you single crochet into those Chains first, then across the Row giving you 40 stitches total.
Hope that helps!

row 26 and 27 i decrease twice but it makes it look like im making steps not a sooth curve. am i doing something wrong?
I am having trouble with this part too. It is definitely not looking right. I’ve riffed and tried again but it still doesn’t seem right.
Keep going ladies – you will add the snout afterwards and it smoothes out. You are welcome to send me a photo of what you have so far to [email protected] or post a photo in our Facebook group. But it’s a common concern and it all works out. 🙂
Hi I am struggling with rows 26 and 27 as well… I did the decreases but it ended up looking like a weird hook that didn’t match up with later pics. I riffed it and I’m trying again but so far it looks the same😬

Hi there, Just wanted to let you know that I am in the process of my first unicorn, (need to make 2). Love the pattern and it is coming out so cute. Perfect size, also. I will surely share a picture with you when it is finished. Thank you so much for sharing this pattern.

That’s so great to hear! Looking forward to seeing them ❤️
Hi! I am ready to start assembling all my pieces for the unicorn and I am just wondering how you attached the mane pieces. This is my first stuffed animal type project so I’m a little unsure of how to do this. Thank you so much for the cute pattern!!
Hi Amber! You can sew them on or glue them. I used a hot glue gun to attach mine.
Hello! I’m getting ready to make the ears and horn. Do I add ears on to each peice or do I make one on both pieces together?
Hi there! You make them on each piece.
Hi I am on the mane and need to look at the video but cant find it anywhere.
The video is directly under the words that say “Below is a video step-by-step for the A-B-C panel.”
Hi! This is a wonderful pattern! The video is not under the words that say there is a step-by-step. I’ve looked several times. Would love any help you might be able to offer in finding the video!
The video is embedded in the post. If you have an ad blocker on, you won’t be able to see it.
Hi I love these cuddlers!
I have a new granddaughter and these would be perfect!
I want to make one and also a matching one to attach to a wood teething ring
How do you suggest I make it small enough
I will be using 4 ply 4 weight cotton yarn
Hi Shirley! So glad you found us! You can use a much smaller hook – however, it probably won’t be small enough for a teether.
Thank you
I will try it
Do you have any smaller patterns, maybe ornament size?
All of our Cuddlers are larger designs 🙂
Hi! This is such a cute pattern. Thank you for making it available! I have a question regarding attaching the mane.
Do you sew the complete mane down or just part of it leaving it to be “free” in places like a horse’s mane would be? Also, did you attach it to the front panel before you sewed the front and back together?
Thanks for your help!
Hi Nancy!
We glued our mane down completely after the front and back were attached together – but you are welcome to do yours according to what you love best. 🙂
I have a question when you do the snout it is on both pieces. Is one on the front side and one on the back side?
Hi Norma! Yes, it is done on both pieces. Happy crocheting! 🙂
I’m confused on line 24 could u please help
Hi Amy!
Row 23 ends with you Chaining 20. Row 24 begins with you SC in those Chains.
Hope that helps!
Hi! I am trying this pattern for the first time. It is so easy to follow!! I just want to clarify one thing. At the end of row 23, do I turn my work?
Thank you for sharing this awesome pattern!!!
Ashlee.
Hi Ashlee! Yes, however you are working into those starting chains first for Row 24.
I was able to figure out A B C mane, having a hard time with DEF…how do I do it backwards??
Hi Shelly! It is crocheted the same as A B C. When you sew/glue it on, you are just reversing it. Hope that helps!
Should it read CH 21 not 11 for the roses/
Hi Judi!
You are increasing in each chain, therefore only 11 chains are needed.
Made a rainbow unicorn for my niece as requested but also putting a pocket and a strap to hang it on her bed for her tooth fairy pillow
Thanks, great design! Hot glued the hair, flowers, and a yarn smile. Great idea
Hi,
I am a beginner crocheter and am in love with all of your designs and your unicorn pillow.
I know how to increase and decrease, but I’m confused with rows, 14, 16 about how you decrease and increase?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Hi Maria!
For Rows 14 & 16 – you will decrease across the first two stitches, single crochet in the next 17 stitches, and increase in the last stitch.
Hope that helps. Happy crocheting!
