My Crochet Bubble Tea Amigurumi Pattern is perfect for boba tea lovers. Who wouldn’t love to have a squishable tea friend? A crochet bubble tea pal, if you will! I know I would cherish anything boba-related!
Yarn Color: I made this using a partial skein of medium purple Red Heart yarn to emulate taro bubble tea, but feel free to choose any color that represents your favorite bubble tea flavor. I recommend using black or a very dark brown for the boba pearls and white for the lid. I also used a bit of light yellow for the straw, but you can change that color as well to complement the bubble tea.
Yarn Type: I used acrylic yarn because it was what I had on hand, but you can complete this project with any type of yarn. Cotton, acrylic, and chunky yarn are highly recommended.
Finished Size: The finished size of the crochet bubble tea is about 8 inches high using a 4mm hook. If you use a different hook or yarn size, the finished size may vary.
Instructions
For this pattern, we will be working in rounds.
Round 1: Using purple (or another yarn color). Make a mr and work sc x8 in to the circle. If you find it difficult making a magic ring you can chain 2 and then crochet sc x8 in the second chain from the hook (8).
Round 2: Inc in every sc (16).
Round 3: Inc, sc. Then repeat until end of round (24).
Round 4: Inc, sc x2. Then repeat until end of round (32).
Round 5: Inc, sc x3. Then repeat until end of round (40).
Round 6: Inc, sc x4. Then repeat until end of round (48).
Round 7: Sc in blo for the entire round (48).
Round 8-30: Sc in every stitch (48).
Add the safety eyes between rounds 14-15 roughly 7 stitches apart.
Crochet Lid:
Round 1: Using white, make a mr and work sc x6 into the circle (6).
Round 2: Inc in every sc (12).
Round 3: Inc, sc. Then repeat until end of round (18).
Round 4: Inc, sc x2. Then repeat until end of round (24).
Round 5: Inc, sc x3. Then repeat until end of round (30).
Round 6: Inc, sc x4. Then repeat until end of round (36).
Round 7: Inc, sc x5. Then repeat until end of round (42).
Round 8: Inc, sc x6. Then repeat until end of round (48).
Round 9: This round we will be attaching the lid to the top of the bubble tea. To do this you will go through the 2 sc at once. One from the white lid and the other from the purple. Both have 48sc so there should be no extra sc.
Inc, sc x7. Then repeat for the rest of the round (54). Before closing the top, stuff the crochet bubble tea.
Round 10: We will be creating the rest of the lid.
Ch x2, in blo, dc in every stitch (54). Slip stitch to the beginning chains and fasten off the yarn. Weave in any ends. Fold the dc round down so it covers a few rounds of the purple. Optionally, you can tact the lid to the tea base if it keeps flipping up on you.
