Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is out on 6th June and we could not be more excited. When the franchise returned to the big screen in 2015, many were skeptical, many were dubious… but many were wrong. Giving a pleasurable nod to the ‘90s classics and bringing us a brand-new park with enhanced technology, there wasn’t anything to dislike about Jurassic World. And this new installment is set to be just as spectacular. Why not celebrate the new release by introducing your favourite hobby to prehistoric times? We’ve rounded up 17 amazing crocheted, amigurumi dinos for you to make, and we can guarantee you’ll be wowed by each and every one of them. Enjoy...

Spiky stegosaurus
We absolutely love this stegosaurus. There’s something about those bony plates – the spikes on its back – that are just so classically, well, dinosaur! You’ll really enjoy making this toy.
The Button Ship
Parasaurolophus pal
Finding it difficult to pronounce parasaurolophus? Us too! But we do know that this crochet dinosaur is unique and undeniably cute – despite the horn sticking out the back of its head. You can download this pattern from Etsy.

Soaring pterodactyl
Barbara the pterodactyl – made by Sarah Louise Read – is simply sensational. She’s as far as you can get from the scary, flying dinosaurs seen in Jurassic Park III and Jurassic World. Download the free pattern and you won’t be disappointed.

Teeny-armed T-rex
It feels weird to say it, but this T-rex is perfect for cuddles. Just look at those squashy feet and tubby tummy! Only problem is, he won’t be able to cuddle you back with those classic short arms. You can download this pattern for free from Ravelry.

Funky triceratops
Let’s finish things off with this brightly-coloured triceratops toy. The tummy is made with ombré yarn for a jazzy effect, but you could just stick with regular yarn if you prefer. Hannah Cooper’s crochet pattern is available for free – what could be better?
