Amazing Ways To Enjoy Peanut Butter

If you’ve ever looked at a celebrity and thought, “I need you… in yarn form,” you’re not alone. The Timothée Chalamet crochet pattern from the book Crochet Your Celebrity Crush is making waves among crafters—and for good reason. This isn’t just a cute idea, it’s an *actual* full crochet project that turns the Hollywood heartthrob into a soft, squishy icon you can hug (or place lovingly on your shelf).

I decided to give the pattern a try and see if it lives up to the hype. Spoiler: it’s detailed, satisfying, and honestly… kind of addictive. But also, not exactly for beginners.

The Pattern Breakdown

The pattern spans everything from his tousled hair to his pointed shoes and couture-worthy jacket. The instructions are broken into well-labeled sections: arms, legs, hair crown, and even mini upper and lower eyelids. It’s meticulous. The kind of project where stitch markers are your best friend and a stitch counter will save your soul.

One thing I really appreciated was the authenticity. This isn’t a generic doll with a name slapped on it. The pattern actually captures Timothée’s broody aesthetic, and if you get the hair right, it’s *undeniably him.*

Time, Tools, and Tangled Yarn

Be prepared to set aside a decent chunk of time. I spent over 12 hours across a weekend, and I’m a reasonably experienced crocheter. The pattern calls for fingering-weight yarn in five shades, a 1.5 mm hook, and the usual suspects—polyfill, embroidery floss, and safety eyes. One clever detail? You build the jacket separately and slide it on like you’re styling a runway model.

Bonus points: the pattern offers excellent shaping techniques, especially in the face and legs. There’s even a tiny plastic mesh insert for the shoes—designer details, anyone?

Would I Make It Again?

Absolutely. This is one of those pieces you finish and immediately want to show off. It’s perfect for gifting, or for anyone who keeps a Pinterest board called “Crochet Crushes.”

My only advice? Don’t rush it. Take your time, read ahead, and maybe have a Timothée movie playing in the background for full immersion.

Final Verdict

This pattern is quirky, complex, and a total joy for intermediate to advanced crocheters. It’s not something you whip up in an afternoon, but it’s worth every loop and stitch for the end result.

One delightful surprise? The way the pattern integrates sculptural techniques. From the subtle cheekbone shaping to the cleverly designed nose insert, it really feels like you’re building a face, not just stitching a sphere. Even the jacket edging and hair construction show a level of finesse usually reserved for fashion dolls or high-end art toys. It’s clear this isn’t just a novelty pattern—it’s a labor of love from a designer who understands both crochet and character.

If you enjoy projects that blend whimsy with technical skill, this one will absolutely scratch that itch (in the best way).
