This free amigurumi snail with heart pattern is designed by Vika (@little_baby_mir) and features a charming snail with a heart-shaped shell. With its soft curves and calm expression, this design is a lovely choice for baby gifts, nursery decor, or small handmade toys meant to bring warmth and comfort. The heart shell adds a symbolic and playful detail, making this snail amigurumi especially appealing for thoughtful crochet projects. We sincerely thank Vika (VK) for sharing this adorable design with the crochet community.
This snail amigurumi crochet pattern is suitable for beginners and is worked entirely in a continuous spiral. The construction is simple and relaxing, using basic stitches throughout. The snail can also be turned into a rattle amigurumi by inserting a rattle capsule inside the shell, making it even more suitable for baby-friendly handmade items. Difficulty Level: Beginner, and it also works well as a Quick to Make Amigurumi thanks to its compact size.
The pattern can be crocheted using cotton or acrylic yarn, such as YarnArt Jeans, Alize Cotton Gold, Vita Cotton, or similar yarns. The shell and antennae are crocheted in pink, while the head and body are worked in beige, with color substitutions easily possible. Facial details are finished using black yarn and half-bead toy eyes. At the end of the pattern, you will also find related amigurumi ideas shared for extra inspiration.
