Colin the Caterpillar Cake Amigurumi Crochet Pattern – and Friends!

Serving Suggestions…

Meet the gang of 6 caterpillar cakes in amigurumi crochet form. These cheeky grins have UK social media gripped in suspense. We have unashamedly jumped on the bandwagon to bring you our low fat, fun packed homage to this tasty supermarket court case.

Marks & Spencer have taken Aldi to court claiming that M&S invented Swiss Rolls with personality; Colin the Caterpillar.

Aldi retaliated via Twitter, vowing to fight for every spoonful of culinary justice as they defend their right to sell Cuthbert the Caterpillar! But wait, there’s more! Not only is Morris caterpillar cake available from Morrisons, there’s Charlie at the Co-op, Clyde from Asda and Curly in Tesco’s.

Where will it end? We don’t know either and didn’t even consider Sainsbury’s Wiggles or Cecil Waitrose at the time of writing.

We await, gripped with chocolate fever to see if we too incur the wrath of copyright infringement with our high fibre yarn filled amigurumi crochet pattern. In the meantime, here’s a wonderful way to get involved while creating an everlasting crochet cake to suit every occasion.

UPDATE: On 1st February, 2022, a truce was called and they lived happily ever after.

    The pattern was fantastic, easy to follow and clear and customer service exceptional due to problems downloading at my end. I adapted the pattern a bit to make two cakes looking like Colin and Connie getting married, copying a picture from M&S. I did them in DK to reduce the size and added hearts instead of smarties, a veil and roses to Connie and a bow tie and top hat to Colin. My Colin mad daughter loved them as they were having them as cake toppers and i surprised them with these on the day. Thank you so much for your brilliant design.

    It's taken a long time to do this one as I'm terrible at sewing and small intricate embellishments, however completed Cuthbert tonight Error on my part, used a 3 mm hook for face as didn't own a 3.5 mm one but the face is too small, also my choc buttons are all shapes as I have zero patience for perfection 🤣 Regardless of my errors, this pattern which incorporates 6 supermarket caterpillars is truly awesome! Easy to follow instructions and picture guides. Highly rate Cottontail and Whiskers patterns as they are truly FABULOUS! 😍
