I don't know anything about this online game. I saw people making these characters, I was wondering what are these things with no arms? They look kind of weird for me.
Then one day, my nephew sent me the pictures of Among Us crewmates and asked me to make one for him. He said this game is going crazy now. So I searched online. Yes, this game is very popular. The pattern is pretty easy. Body, backpack, and goggle, that are all they have.
At first, I tried the Premier Cotton Fair Yarn to make the small size amigurumi. I like the texture of this yarn and the weight just perfect for the size I wanted. It's about 9 cm in height. They looked so cute in this size and they are great to be a keychain or Christmas ornament! You can make some for the stocking stuffer!
For the small size pattern, I'm pretty sure you can find a lot of free patterns online. The one I want to share with you here is the big and medium size Among Us plush that are made with Bernat Blanket yarn. I love to use Bernat Blanket Yarn for big size plush because it is so soft and cozy. Also, it's chunky and works up fast. The big one finished size is about 14in (36cm). The medium is about 11in (29cm).
Skill level: Easy
Materials:
-- Bernat Blanket Yarn in colour of your choice
(I used EXACT 1 big ball to make one. If your crochet loosely, you might need a smaller size hook)
-- Small amount of Seafoam and Black colour for the goggle
-- Size K (7 mm) hook
-- Tapestry needle
-- Fiber fill
Abbreviations:
sc - single crochet
inc - increase
dec - decrease
sl st - slip stitch
Note:
-- This body pattern is worked in continuous rounds. Use a stitch marker to mark the last stitch of each row; move it up as you go along.
-- The body is worked from the bottom to the top. Start from the legs and end at the head.
-- The backpack pattern is worked with join stitch. Begin your round in same stitch as your joining chain.

*I made 11 rounds for the legs. But after I finished stuffing, I noticed the legs look a bit longer than I expected. I didn't want to frog it, so just kept it like that.
So you can make 10 rounds for the legs if you like it shorter.
