MONSTER HUNTER WIGGLER PATTERN

Oh the Wiggler. I must admit I'm a Monster Hunter World "baby" as we're called - with that game being my first to play in the franchise.

Well what can I say... I got to the corral highlands and saw a Wiggler for the first time and I cant even describe the noise I made, all I can say is I  *knew* I needed a Wiggler in my life. In the game I stalked them and lived amongst them for hours in-game and then I saw their QUEEN. Yes I caught her and I have as many Wigglers displayed in my little house as possible in the game.

And real life.

I've made a small army of Wigglers and my army is ever growing! Whenever I lose my crojo I just whip up a Wiggler and go charity shop hunting for pots.... nothing can stop the army of Wigglers.

 

 

 

Where to find the Wiggler pots? Charity / thrift stores!!

Assembly

You may wish to pin the entire Wiggler together to get a feel for placements before you start sewing, this is what I always do as I find the feathers can be a bit fiddly at times.

 

Start with the feathers.

Pin the Neck Feathers to the neck with 3 on each side - two medium and one large in the middle. Set the medium feathers slightly behind the large one. When they are in place and you're happy, sew them on. I found a whip stitch to be the best method here.

 

Next, carefully pin 3 spots down each side of the Wiggler and line them up as much as possible. When these are in place, sew them neatly on.

Take up the chin and carefully pin it to the head of the Wiggler, with the neck running between the feathers. The bottom of the neck should end up just below the middle blue body spots.

When you’re happy with the placement, sew it on neatly.

Finally the eyes.

Take up the crochet eyes and pin them in place either side of the head. When you're happy with the placement sew them on neatly. For the pupil, take up a long strand of black yarn and embroider the pupil - I used two strands of yarn to get the desired width of my modern Wigglers. 

 

 

If you wish to use alternate methods for the eyes, worth them in place.

 

 

 

Then that's it!

You're done!

Enjoy your new adorable Wiggler!

 

*The photos of my original Wiggler on this page have needle felted eyes.
