Hello my dears, today I will share an amazing white dove crochet amigurumi pattern. The crochet white dove is one of the most amazing free patterns I’ve ever seen. I would even say the best. As you know, the white dove symbolizes peace. It is also a very common behavior for the pigeon to carry an olive branch in its beak. Although this is a somewhat symbolic event, it looks very nice. The amigurumi pattern, on the other hand, has a very detailed explanation. In this way, you will be able to easily make amigurumi white dove. Now if you’re ready, let’s get started.

The plumage for the right wing (from the observer) will be directed in the wrong direction. Therefore, it is necessary to pin the feathers with the needles for cutting to the fabric in the right direction and steam them with an iron (see photo 50, 51). Sew the plumage to the wings (see photo 52).
Mark with the needle for cutting the location of the wings between 19 and 20 round of the body, the distance between them is approx 22 stitches (see photo 53)
WIRE FRAME TO THE WINGS
Insert the yarn needle into the body at the wings attachment point. Take a piece of wire (approximately 40 cm – 15.7 inches long). Pull the wire through the body use a needle (see photos 54, 55). Pull the crocheted wings to the wire (see photo 56).
Bite off excess wire and bend the end into a “loop” using round-nose pliers (see photo 57). Additionally sew the tips of the wings to prevent wire end from protruding out (see photo 58). Sew the wing to the body (see photos 59, 60). If you are not using wire sew the wings to the body in the same way.
