How to Crochet Green Onions Amigurumi: Simple Guide

If you’re building a crochet play food collection (or you just love tiny amigurumi veggies), this green onion—also called a spring onion or scallion—is such a fun project. In the video tutorial below, you’ll see how to shape the onion bulb and add those signature leafy green tops for a realistic, adorable finish.
This is a great make for gift toppers, pretend kitchen sets, market-themed toys, or even cute decor for your craft room. And since it’s small, it’s perfect when you want a satisfying project without a huge time commitment.

A green onion amigurumi usually has two main parts: the rounded white bulb and the tall green stalks. In the tutorial, you’ll see how to build that classic onion shape with clean curves, then add the greens so they stand up nicely and look “fresh.”
One of the best things about crochet vegetables is how customizable they are. You can easily adjust the look by making the greens a little longer or fuller, or by shaping the bulb slightly rounder—without needing to overthink it. If you’re making a whole set, consistency matters more than perfection, so focus on keeping your pieces similar in size and style.
