Hello, we continue with our crochet animal series on a beautiful Monday. Today we have a crochet lemur in our crochet animal series. Since I don’t see crochet lemur amigurumi very often, I wanted to share it with you for a change. You will have a lot of fun making this crochet animal, which looks very cute. This crochet lemur is very cute with its long tail and big nose. I wrote in detail the color changes while making its striped body. If you follow the pattern instructions carefully, you can make this cute crochet lemur without any difficulty. Since the body and head are made in one piece, most of the work will be finished in one go.
