I am so happy to announce that I've finally finished designing and crocheting all 5 emotions from Pixar's Inside Out!

Inside Out is a beloved Pixar animation in our family. It really helped when we were teaching the kids the different zones of regulation to help them learn self-regulation and emotional control.
Amigurumi Sadness Crochet Doll from Inside Out
Back in 2020, when the pandemic first started, we all thought the world was coming to an end. Everyone was stuck at home, and we all had to social distance and limit our contact with people. Our mental health took a back seat, and depression rates were on the rise.
I'm not a stranger to depression, and on International Mental Health Day that year, I released my crochet pattern for my Sadness amigurumi doll. I am quite proud of that pattern because it quickly became my daughter's favorite toy.
Amigurumi Joy Crochet Doll from Inside Out
She then followed to ask for Joy, because you can't just have Sadness and not Joy. So I created Joy amigurumi doll.
And for a while, I only had crochet patterns for Sadness and Joy. I didn't think to create any of the other characters from the movie, but then one day, I started receiving emails from parents and teachers.
Parents and teachers were making my Sadness and Joy dolls and using them to teach their children about emotions and self-regulation. Many started to ask whether I would be continuing to release the patterns for the remaining characters.
Amigurumi Anger Crochet Doll from Inside Out
I hesitated to promise anything because I would hate to make a promise I can't keep. But I tried.
The Anger amigurumi doll had a different head shape than the rest of them, and I wasn't sure if I was able to achieve that. But he ended up being one of the cutest amigurumi dolls I've ever designed with his tie!
Amigurumi Disgust Crochet Doll from Inside Out
I then proceeded to design a Disgust amigurumi doll. Disgust is all about her sass and accessories. So, of course, I needed to recreate her dramatic eyelashes using real falsies. It was probably one of the best parts of this amigurumi doll.
And so, the family grew...
Amigurumi Fear Crochet Doll from Inside Out
And then at last... there's Fear amigurumi doll. I put off designing Fear for a long time because it was the oddest shape of all of them. It took me a few iterations before I finally came to a design that I was happy with.
And then there you have it, all 5 emotions from Pixar's Inside Out.

I'm sorry it took so long to finally release the whole set, but I hope you like them as much as I do! You can find the link to the patterns by clicking on their individual photos!

Any chance you’re going to do the new emotions? I’m finishing up the originals now with fear and would love to have the newbies for my collection!
Hello! I've been meaning to, but I haven't gotten a chance to start them yet. I've been dealing with a lot of personal and family issues lately and a few projects in the works. I will get to them eventually, I hope. <3
Hi there! I was wondering if you were goin to do perhaps an Anxiety ami to go with the rest of your awesome set! I want my anxiety to be a pattern by you so it'll match my others! Thanks so much for sharing your patterns! God bless hope all is well!
