This year’s crochet fav is without any doubt is the crochet dumpling plush in a steamer basket plush. On my other blog, I have a whole series dedicated to Halloween dumpling variations and you all are showing much love for all of them. Here, I have used the easiest crochet dumpling plush as a base.

But here, today, I will be sharing a FREE tutorial to crochet a little better variation of the crochet dumpling plush. So, say welcome to the crochet yellow dumpling in a brown steamer basket plush.

In my opinion, this is the CUTEST color-combo I have seen so far including the pink and brown dumpling combo as well. You can complete yours with the yellow glitter eyes. The dumpling fits pretty nicely in the steamer bosket. And with the lid, it is also perfect for holding your other plushies. Give this steamer basket plush a shot this time, as it is a gateway to learn all other variations.

Time to Learn How to Crochet A Plush Dumpling in A Basket 

This tutorial shows how to crochet a small pink toy. First, make a magic ring by chaining two and adding single crochets. Then, increase the number of stitches in each round to make the shape grow.

Crochet a few rounds without changing the stitch count. Next, add safety eyes between specific rounds. Start decreasing the stitches to close the shape. Fill the body with stuffing before it gets too small. Finally, add decorative stitches around the bottom edge for detail. Sew the last few stitches closed to finish the project. This is a quick and fun craft for everyone.

Difficulty Level: Easy (Beginner)

This project is easy because it uses basic stitches and a simple round shape. The chunky yarn makes it easy to see the stitches, and the steps repeat in a way that is easy to remember.
