This enchanting Beast amigurumi is a handcrafted masterpiece inspired by the iconic character from Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. With impressive detail—from his expressive eyes and majestic horns to the royal blue and gold jacket—this crochet plush brings the fairy tale prince to life in a soft, cuddly form. Each element, from the tufted beard to the embroidered claws, is meticulously stitched, capturing the Beast’s regal yet gentle personality.
The Beast is crafted using warm shades of brown yarn for his body and hair, enhanced with textured detailing to highlight his facial features, fangs, and paws. His elegant outfit, featuring a blue royal coat with yellow trim and a matching vest, is crocheted separately and seamlessly attached for a polished finish. Standing tall and proud, this amigurumi doll is perfect for collectors, fans of classic Disney tales, or anyone who loves fantasy-inspired crochet art.
