From adorable fuzzy critters, to sweet-looking fruits and vegetables, to quirky comic book and cartoon characters—if you can imagine it, you can crochet it!

Amigurumi (pronounced ah-mee-goo-roo-mee) is Japanese for "crochet (or knit) stuffed toy." Although the concept originated in Japan, the amigurumi craze is taking over the world in waves of crocheted cuteness!

   • Easy-to-follow tutorials for getting started, increasing and decreasing, working in the round, changing colors, and more.
   • Expert advice on adding eyes, hair, jointed limbs, clothes, and other fun accessories to your ami.
