While for this year’s crochet festive gift basket series, I only wanted to include the Christmas characters, I simply could not resist the charm of the crochet goat candy and gift basket! Since, from the fairytale patterns series, I have already brought two goat amigurumi and plush patterns as Christmas gifts, I decided to show you this basket variation, too.

So, this Christmas, learn how to crochet this UNIQUE sitting baby goat gift and candy basket that doubles as a welcome decoration for the guests! Learn to crochet this goat basket in either brown and white or beige and white variations.

We are crocheting the same buddy again: a sitting basket with the amigurumi head and body parts. Can be crocheted using plush yarn. Now, continue reading for learning more about this crochet amigurumi gift basket project for absolute beginners!

Tutorial to Crochet Amigurumi Candy Basket for Kids

This tutorial teaches how to make a crochet sheep basket. First, crochet a flat base and work into the back loops to form the basket walls. Next, make a colorful decorative chain bow. Crochet a sphere for the head using the back loops so the front loops remain open.

Then, add textured sheep wool across the open front loops using chain loops. Crochet two small folded ears, glue safety eyes, and stitch the nose. Next, crochet long arms around a craft wire and make two round feet. Finally, glue all pieces to the basket.
