What is Amigurumi?

Amigurumi is Japanese for “crocheted stuffed toy”, and that is exactly what is it. Crocheters create adorable toys in all sizes. Some are small to fit into the palm of your hand, while others are gigantic and perfect to snuggle with. You can create both extremes by simply changing the size of the yarn and your hook. Perfect to make both matching teddies for a child and their doll. You can combine techniques used in Amigurumi to add to other project. You can add a head to your baby blanket and make a cuddly security blanket or lovey instead.
