FO and leave a long tail to complete. Using a tapestry needle, pass the tail through all FL of the last round, and pull. Make a knot and hide the yarn inside the doll.
After completing the body and head of the amigurumi ant, let’s make its antennae.
Antennas
Start with dark brown yarn to make the antennas on the upper side of the head. Between R2-3, make a loop (see picture), then make 5ch, 1sc at second ch from hook, 1ss. Hide and secure the tails. Make 2 antennas side by side.
Let’s crochet the arms and legs of the amigurumi ant.
Arms
Start with dark brown yarn to make the arms. We will make 4 arms, at the left and right side of the body. 2 arms are located at the thorax, between R16-17. The other 2 are located at the abdomen, between R21-22 (see pictures). Make a loop, then make 8ch, 1sc at second ch from hook, 1ss. Hide and secure the tails.
Legs
Start with dark brown yarn to make the legs which are located at the left and right side of the abdomen. Between R24-25, make a loop (see picture), then make 10ch, 1sc at second ch from hook, 1ss. Hide and secure the tails. Make 2 legs.
