Saitama Crochet Pattern

April 30, 2022

The anime I recently rewatched was One Punch Man. The story is very exciting, about a super strong man named Saitama. With just one hit he can defeat any monster! Although super strong, this bald-headed man is very humble and he became a hero as hobby. Saitama amigurumi crochet pattern was inspired after watching the anime. You can watch it on Muse Asia YouTube channel.

When I found out that One Punch Man was airing on Muse Indonesia, I watched it again for fun even though I’ve watched it until the end of Season 2. I didn’t know I would continue rewatched it because it was so exciting. I even continued to watch on Muse Asia because the episodes at Muse Indonesia at that time were not complete.

One Punch Man fans are waiting for the third season to be released. While waiting, let’s crochet Saitama amigurumi. You can read Saitama crochet pattern for FREE in this post. Saitama PDF crochet pattern is also available to purchase on my Blog Shop, Etsy, Ravelry, and Ko-fi Shop.
