Stuffing

Body.
Using white.
Start with magic ring.
1: 6 sc in magic ring. (6)
2: inc around (12)
3: *inc, sc in next* around (18)
4: *inc, sc in next 2 sc* around (24)
5: sc in next 2, *inc in next, sc in next 3* 6 times, sc in last stitch. (30)
6: *sc in next 4, inc* around (36)
7: *inc, sc in next 5* around. (42)
8: sc in next 2 *inc, sc in next 6* around, sc in last 4 sc. (48)

12-17: sc around. (60)

20: Working in Back Loops Only, sc around. (48) Bind off.

Edging:
Using white, join yarn at the end of row 19.
Work in Front Loops Only.
Work 3 “cluster A”s, then work 1 “Cluster B”, then work the rest of the row in “Cluster A”
“Cluster A”
Slip Stitch in next sc, sc in next sc, hdc in next sc, *dc chain 1, dc* in next stitch, hdc in next sc, sc in next sc.

“Cluster B”
Slip stitch in next sc, chain 1, hdc in next stitch, chain 1, slip stitch in chain, hdc in next sc, *hdc chain 1, slip stitch in chain, hdc* in next sc, hdc in next sc, chain 1, slip stitch in chain, hdc in next sc, chain 1.

Stuff as much as possible.

Feet
Using Tan, make 2.
Start with Magic Circle.
1: 6 sc in magic ring. (6)
2: *sc in next, inc in next, sc in next* around. (8)
3: sc in next 2 sc, inc, sc in next 3 sc, inc, sc in last sc. (10)
4: sc in next 3 sc, inc, sc in next 4, inc, sc in last sc. (12)
5-7: sc around. (12)
Begin stuffing
8: dec around. (6)
Bind off and add any more stuffing needed to fill out shape.

Now, from hear on out, it gets very tricky and confusing. So read the pattern carefully!

Crown Points.
Using tan, make 5.
On the 5th one, DO NOT BIND OFF.

Start with a magic circle.
1: 6sc in magic circle. (6)
2: sc in next, inc, sc in next 2, inc, sc in last sc. (8)
3: sc in next 2 sc, inc, sc in next 3 sc, inc, sc in last sc. (10)
4: sc in next 3 sc, inc, sc in next 4 sc, inc, sc in last sc. (12)
5: sc in next 4 sc, inc, sc in next 5 sc, inc, sc in last sc. (14)
6: sc in next 5 sc, inc, sc in next 6 sc, inc, sc in last sc. (16)
Bind off leaving a few inches of yarn to sew holes together.
Stuff.

DOUBLE CHECK AND COUNT HOW MANY STITCHES ARE IN EACH POINT.
There MUST be 16.



Crown of the head.
Sc in next 8 sc.
*sc in first 8 sc of point* 4 more times. You want to leave the long end close to where the points meet. There WILL be holes there, and you need to sew them up.
(40)
2: *sc in next 6 sc, dec* around. (35)
3: *sc in next 5 sc, dec* around. (30)
4: *sc in next 4 sc, dec* around. (25)
5: *sc in next 3 sc, dec* around. (20)
6: *sc in next 2 sc, dec* around. (15)
7: *sc in next sc, dec* around. (10)
8: dec around. (5)

Bind off leaving a long tail. Do not stuff yet. Do not sew any holes together yet.

Now, you will be working in the stitches left over from the points.

Face/neck area.
1: Sc in the remaining 8 sc of each point. (40)
2: *inc in next sc, sc in next 9 sc* around. (44)
3: sc in next 6 sc, *inc, sc in next 10 sc* 3 times, Inc, sc in last 4 sc. (48)
4-5: sc around. (48)

Bind off leaving a very long tail to sew head to body.
Stuff the head lightly.
Begin sewing the head to the body so one of the points is centered over the “Cluster B”. (I used a whipstitch.)
When you only have about 10 stitches left to sew together, stuff the rest of the head and body. Make the shape egg-like.
Finish sewing the head on.
Remember how we have the 6 different holes? We’re going to use them to finalize the shape. Use a stuffing tool, pencil, or chopstick to finish stuffing the body.
Using the tails left over, sew all of the holes closed.

Assembly.
Use a small amount of black yarn, and embroider a line to separate the 2 toes on each foot.
If you used felt, cut out felt shapes using the templates provided.
Cut 2 of A in red, 2 of A in blue, 1 B in blue, 1 C in blue, 1 D in red, 1 E in red, 2 Ovals in black, 2 smaller ovals in white, and 2 “D” shapes in peach.
If you want to embroider the plush like I did do so now.
Do so in this order.
Eyes (pupils, lines, and catchlights.)
Red triangles and square-ish shapes.
Blue triangles
Soles of feet

Sew the feet to the underside of the shell to the plush will stand on its own.
Sew the arms on opposite sides of the shell.

Weave in all ends.

Is this pattern no longer available? I keep looking through this link and all I see is the pattern for the cut outs for the shell. Am I overlooking it somewhere?

hi im having the same problems with the crown of the head putting the points together and I read your comment about it and I am still confused did you ever upload a video on this part ? when I am connecting the first point to the second point do I just do a single crochet  to the  second point then continuing to single crochet  then do the same to the other points if you could just upload some pictures of this point would totally help .

Hi! It has been a few years since you made this post (thanks for giving us the pattern!), so I don't know if you still monitor comments, but in the hope that you (or someone) does, I'll ask a question. Time is running out -- this Togepi needs to be under the tree Christmas morning!

Also, when I have more time in a day or two, I have a couple of suggestions to improve your pattern. It doesn't change your pattern at all, just clarifies the instructions for those who don't crochet enough to "fill in the blanks" on their own. It seems like a lot of new crocheters are wanting to make this and other Pokemon, and I don't want them to give up because they were confused! 

Q: It looks as if your pattern is for either embroidering all the colored parts (face, shapes, etc.) OR using felt for all of them, right? I think I understand where all the red and blue shapes go (though I wish I could see the backside of yours). I think the black and white are for the eyes. But I don't know where the peach felt/yarn goes, though! Help, help!

I haven't started working on this yet but I did have a question. What size hook do I need to use? I'd like to try and keep this looking as close to yours as possible. A good friend of mine will die if I can make this for him.

cutypie370 [2012-08-05 17:50:57 +0000 UTC]

I am so happy that you put the pattern up but I am getting confused with the crown of the head, I've read the pattern several times at the spot where you make 5 points but not to bind off on the 5th one. After that section it says to single crochet in the next 8 sc, am i still crocheting the 5th point? and also it says sc in the first 8 sc of the point 4 more times, am i just crocheting around the the 5th point? Are there any increases in there? It goes from 16 to 40 sc and Im not sure how that happened. This pattern is fantastic and once again I am very grateful Thank you!

Taikxo In reply to cutypie370 [2012-08-06 03:26:11 +0000 UTC]

I may need to re-write that to make it clear.

So, you have your 4 points that are bound off.
You make the 5th point, and rather then binding off, you crochet in the next 8 stitches, now, grab you a new point, and crochet in 8 stitches on the new point, then grab the next point, and crochet in the next 8, till you have a funky little chain of points.
Then, after you have crocheted 8 stitches on the last point, use a slip stitch to join with the first sc you made on the point you did not bind off.
So, you don't actually increase at all, but you pick up stitches from each of the points.
Let me know if you need more help.
I can post a youtube video to explain this part if you still don't understand.
