Amigurumi is the Japanese art of making knitted or crocheted
stuffed animals, and it is taking the world by storm. These toys can be
a simple or as complex as the maker likes--ranging from a tiny fluffy
chick to an elaborate textured elephant. This book provides all the
information you need to get started, with tips on choosing yarns and
needles, and instruction in core techniques.
All
of the animal characters can be created using key shapes such as
spheres, eggs, cylinders, and flat circles, which are quick and easy to
stitch and put together.
Includes clear
step-by-step instructions for making 15 adorable animals, including
a frog with webbed feet, a lion with a crocheted mane, and a cuddly
mohair rabbit, plus ideas for creating your own unique designs.
