Year of the Ox – Mr. Ox Crochet Pattern

Do you know what are the Chinese Zodiac Animals? In the Lunar calendar, there are 12 zodiac animals, in order, they’re the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog & Pig. Each of them takes turns to represent the year and each year will be characterized by that assigned animal’s attributes in a 12-year cycle. And this year 2021 is the year of the Ox!

Unfortunately, the region I’m staying in doesn’t celebrate Lunar New Year and there isn’t really any new year decorations I can get here. So I came up with the idea to create Mr. Ox and have him celebrate the new year with me!

Mr. Ox is made out of cotton yarn with 2.5mm crochet hook. This pattern is suitable for intermediate-level crocheters. However, if you’re a beginner with basic crochet skill knowledge like magic ring, single crochet, half double crochet, Increase and decrease etc., and have done a few crochet projects, perhaps, you would like to try out something more challenging… then how about Mr. Ox?

You can now find Year of the Ox – Mr. Ox downloadable PDF crochet pattern in my shop and One Zero Crochet Etsy shop! This pattern contains 18-page detailed instructions with lots of step-by-step pictures to guide you through this crochet project. You’ll get the pattern immediately right after the payment confirmation.

Happy niú (Chinese pinyin=Ox) Year!!
