Custom Crochet Plushie: Design Your Own Handmade Animal
The Custom Crochet Plushie is a made-to-order handmade amigurumi by Loops & Paws; two sisters crocheting in England. Choose any animal or character, one of six sizes (from £8), your yarn and colours, and even send us a reference photo. We hand-crochet your one-of-a-kind plushie to your design and post it within 2–3 weeks.

Yarn & colours
Every custom plushie is crocheted in one of our super-soft chenille yarns, i.e. Feels Like Bliss, Dolce or Parfait Chunky; each available in a wide range of colours. Choose your yarn and tell us the colours you’d like at checkout, or pick ‘Help me choose’ and we’ll suggest the best match for your design. Not sure on a shade? Send a reference photo and we’ll match it as closely as we can.
“Custom orders are our favourite; someone sends us a photo of their pet or their child’s favourite animal, and we get to bring it to life in yarn. No two are ever the same.” Designer sister, Loops & Paws
