Have you ever wished you could bring your crochet creations to life in a whole new way? Now you can—with crayons, markers, colored pencils, or even watercolor! 


I’m thrilled to introduce something brand new to the Simply Hooked shop: printable amigurumi coloring pages inspired by my most-loved plushie designs. These black-and-white line art illustrations are a fun, affordable, and creative way to enjoy your favorite characters all over again, this time with your own colorful spin.

Why Amigurumi Coloring Pages?

What started as a way to spread joy through yarn has now blossomed into something new—a printable collection that blends crochet and creativity. Turning my plushie designs into coloring pages felt like the most natural next step. These characters were made to spark imagination and bring smiles. Now they can do just that for kids, adults, makers, teachers, and color-loving creatives alike.

What’s Inside the Amigurumi Coloring Collection?

Each page is:

  • Inspired by an original Simply Hooked crochet plushie design
  • Delivered as an instant digital download
  • Printable at home on standard paper
  • Great for gifts, classrooms, craft fairs, or just rainy-day fun
  • A wonderful way to share amigurumi with kids, parents, or fellow makers

It’s like bringing your plushies into a whole new dimension, and the best part? No yarn required. 😉

How to Use Amigurumi Coloring Pages

Not sure how you’ll use them? Here are some ideas:

  • Print at home for personal coloring fun
  • Bundle a few pages into a classroom art packet
  • Include one with every crochet order for a surprise extra
  • Laminate pages and use dry-erase markers for reusable fun
  • Host a “color and crochet” night with friends

Craft Fairs: Small Business Ideas

If you’re a maker who sells at craft fairs, here’s a smart idea: pair a coloring page with the finished plushie. Imagine a child walking away with both a handmade toy AND a coloring page of the same character. It’s memorable, affordable, and adds value to your booth without much extra work.


You could also:

  • Offer free coloring pages as a promotional bonus
  • Sell bundles of 5–10 designs as a low-cost upsell
  • Display finished colored pages alongside your plushies to attract kids

This kind of cross-medium creativity makes your booth stand out from the crowd.

Stress Relief Through Coloring

Crochet and coloring have something in common: they’re both calming, meditative activities.

  • Crochet helps keep hands busy and minds focused.
  • Coloring reduces anxiety and promotes mindfulness.

Together, they create a synergy of creativity and calm. Even if you’re not currently crocheting, these coloring pages allow you to stay connected to the world of amigurumi in a relaxing way.

Crochet plushies have always been about joy, comfort, and creativity. Now, with amigurumi coloring pages, you can experience that same joy with markers and crayons instead of yarn and a hook.


Whether you’re a crocheter looking for a new creative outlet, a parent searching for affordable activities for kids, or a gift-giver who loves unique, handmade-inspired ideas, these coloring pages are for you.
