Retro Goose in Overalls: Goose Amigurumi Pattern

IntermediatePattern Design: a crocheter friend of our maker · Updated 2026-11-06
A white crochet goose held in one hand in front of a beige wall, wearing a straw-coloured brimmed hat with a red band, a red scarf, green overalls with brown buttons and a tan shoulder bag

A white goose about 20 cm (8 in) tall with a long neck, peach-orange feet and beak, and a set of clothes that come off: green overalls with two straps, a straw-look brimmed hat with a red band, a red scarf and a small shoulder bag. The legs and body are one piece worked up from the feet, the head and neck are one piece, and everything is single crochet with a few half double and double crochets, in spiral rounds with a fine yarn and a 1.15 mm hook.

Shared on Loopy Panda with the designer's permission. Every round's stitch count is checked.

What you need

  • A fine yarn (about 160 m per 50 g, a little finer than 4-ply milk cotton) in white (body, head, neck, wings), peach orange (feet, beak), green (overalls), tan (hat and bag; a jute or jute-look yarn makes the hat look like straw) and dark red (scarf, hat band), plus a little brown for the embroidered buttons. The designer didn't name the yarn; this is our reading of the photos and the hook size.
  • Crochet hook: 1.15 mm. With 4-ply milk cotton and a 2.0 mm hook it works too and comes out about 24–25 cm tall.
  • Two black 4–5 mm bead eyes and a little white thread for the eye detail; pink blush (optional)
  • Two 5 mm buttons for the overalls (or embroider them) and one 6–7 mm button for the bag
  • Fibre stuffing, stitch markers and a tapestry needle. The scarf in the photos is knitted (two needles); a crochet version is given too.
  • Finished size: about 20 cm (8 in) tall without the hat, with a fine yarn and a 1.15 mm hook

Abbreviations (US terms)

Everything in the round is worked in continuous spiral rounds (no slip stitch, no turning chain between rounds): put a stitch marker in the first stitch of each round and move it up. The number in brackets is the stitch count at the end of the round or row.

Assembly

  1. Neck to bodySew the 18 stitches at the end of the neck to the last 18 stitches of the body (see sewing amigurumi parts), with the taller hdc side of the neck at the front.
  2. WingsSew the flattened open end of each wing to the side of the body between Rnds 43 and 44, one on each side, so they hang straight down.
  3. BeakSew the open end of the beak to the middle of the front of the head. The designer's sheet doesn't give the round; in the photos it sits a little below the middle of the head.
  4. EyesSew the bead eyes just above the beak, one on each side, about 2–3 stitches from it (our reading of the photos). With white thread, make a small stitch under each eye for a little white highlight.
  5. FinishingBrush a little blush on the cheeks if you like. To shape the head, take the yarn through the head from one side to the other and pull it a little tight.

Frequently asked questions

Who designed the retro goose?

A crocheter friend of our maker, who let us share the pattern on Loopy Panda and translate it. We checked every round's stitch count and fixed the slips in the original sheet (Rnd 20 of the head makes 18 stitches, the overalls rounds 25–27, the overalls legs as Rnds 28–29). The yarn, the colours of the hat and bag, how the second strap starts, the hat band, the eyes, how much to stuff the wings and where the beak and eyes go are our reading of the photos.

Why a 1.15 mm hook?

That is the hook the designer uses, with a fine yarn, so the stitches are tiny and tight and the goose is 20 cm tall. Any hook that gives a firm fabric with your yarn works: with 4-ply milk cotton and a 2.0 mm hook the goose comes out about 24–25 cm tall and the clothes still fit, because they are made with the same yarn and hook.

Is it good for a beginner?

It's mostly single crochet, increases and decreases, but there are many parts and a few new things: starting on a chain, joining two legs, a neck worked off the side of the head, and flat rows for the bib and the bag flap. It makes a good third or fourth doll; if you are new, start with the beginner's amigurumi guide.
