Turn bold black-and-cream yarn into your own little Gorilla.
With its rounded head, contrasting cream face, broad muzzle, tiny ears, chunky arms and legs, and friendly smile, this crochet Gorilla combines a strong silhouette with a surprisingly gentle personality.
This project is a great way to explore larger shaped pieces, strong color contrast, muzzle construction, limb assembly, stuffing, and facial expression.
One of the most rewarding stages is creating the layered face. Small differences in the placement of the eyes, muzzle, nose, and smile can completely change the personality of your finished Gorilla.
Follow our step-by-step video tutorials and printable PDF pattern at your own pace.
Finished, it becomes a bold shelf companion, an unusual handmade gift, or a standout piece in a jungle-inspired crochet collection.
Bold colors. Strong shapes. One friendly Gorilla made by hand.

I spent more time undoing rows than actually moving forward. I can see why people enjoy it; I just struggled. I worked on it after dinner for several days, so it never felt like a huge commitment.
Eine gute Freundin ist weit weggezogen und ich wollte ihr nichts Beliebiges schenken. Die Figur ist klein, aber die Bedeutung dahinter ist ziemlich groß. Genau deshalb hat sich das Projekt für mich gelohnt. Morgens vor der Arbeit habe ich immer ein kleines Stück gemacht, und dadurch fühlte sich alles angenehm entspannt an.
I made this for my niece’s birthday and she immediately asked if I really made it myself. I’d rather give something with a story than something expensive and forgettable. The time I spent making it became part of the gift. This is probably the most personal gift I’ve made in years. I worked on it after dinner for several days, which made the whole thing feel pretty low-pressure.
I started this on a Sunday afternoon and completely lost track of time in a good way. It was exactly the kind of low-key hobby I needed. I did most of mine on a quiet Sunday, which made the whole thing feel pretty low-pressure.
This felt like a much easier price point for trying a new hobby. I cared more about clear instructions than fancy packaging, and this delivered. That mattered to me because I was trying the hobby, not committing to a whole new personality. I’d happily buy another at this price. I picked at mine for about a week, which made the whole thing feel pretty low-pressure.
The PDF was simple to follow, but honestly the video is what made everything click for me. I ended up understanding the pattern instead of just copying blindly. I never felt like I had to keep up with someone else’s pace. This made me want to try a second animal. I worked on mine over two evenings, which made the whole thing feel pretty low-pressure.
