Disgust Amigurumi Crochet Doll Pattern


Updated on by

Disgust is one of the most outspoken characters from Pixar's Inside Out, and now you can make your very own amigurumi Disgust doll! She's sarcastic, opinionated, and always ready to protect Riley from anything she finds unpleasant, whether it's questionable food, embarrassing situations, or something that just doesn't meet her standards.

After crocheting Sadness, Joy, and Anger, I knew Disgust needed a place in the collection too. With her signature green skin, long eyelashes, and stylish outfit, she's instantly recognizable and adds plenty of personality to your Inside Out amigurumi collection. Whether you're making her for yourself, a fellow Inside Out fan, or a child who loves the movies, this free crochet pattern is a fun way to bring another one of Riley's emotions to life.

If you're collecting all the emotions, be sure to check out my other free Inside Out crochet patterns too. Together, they make a colorful set that's perfect for display, imaginative play, or even helping little ones talk about their feelings.

Amigurumi Hair for Disgust from Pixar Inside Out

Eyelashes

In the animated movie, Disgust has these long dramatic eyelashes. So instead of embroidering eyelashes, I decided to sacrifice a set of false eyelashes by cutting out two small pieces.

Then, I used some glue to attach them above the safety eyes to give my amigurumi doll some extra glam!

Story Behind the Stitches

Ever since I started crocheting more of the Inside Out characters, BB started asking me to make Disgust. After Sadness, Joy, and eventually Anger joined the collection, she was more than ready for another character, especially one with such a fabulous sense of style! As BB has grown older, I've noticed her own love of fashion starting to shine through. She's drawn to pretty dresses, fun prints, and interesting fabrics, so it was no surprise that she took a special interest in helping me bring Disgust to life.

As I worked on the design, BB was quick to point out all the little details I couldn't leave out. She reminded me about Disgust's scarf on her neck, the shoes, the flare of her dress, her belt, and even her tiny belt buckle! It became a fun little collaboration, with BB making sure that I captured all the details that give Disgust her signature look.

Of course, getting the design right took a little trial and error, especially when it came to finding the perfect shade of green. I first tried using yarn from my existing stash, but the colour I chose wasn't quite right. Instead of looking like Disgust, my first attempt ended up looking more like some kind of frog lady! 😂 

When I had the opportunity to try Brava Worsted yarn from WeCrochet, I finally had a much larger palette of colours to choose from. I ordered the shade Alfalfa, but when it arrived, I was convinced I had made another mistake. It was as bright as a green highlighter!

Thankfully, once I started crocheting with it, I realized that the colour was actually perfect. Sometimes yarn looks completely different in the skein than it does once it becomes part of a finished project! Between finding the right shade of green and having BB act as my very own fashion consultant, Disgust ended up being a much more collaborative project than I expected, and I think all those little details were worth it in the end.
