Amigurumi (stuffed toy) Tips
When making toys the gauge is not important.
However it is important to crochet very tightly
to keep any gaps between stitches very small.
This will help keep the piece the correct shape
and size and will prevent the stuffing from
showing through the stitches.

Both balls shown were made with the same


hook and yarn but the smaller ball has the
correct tension.
Another important thing to remember
when working in the round is to keep track
of the first stitch in the row with a stitch
marker. When you come back around to the
marker you will know you are ready to begin
the next row.

Take a look at how I have my safety pin


marking my first stitch. You can see that
the pin is going under both loops of the
stitch. When working amigurumi patterns
you will be working into both loops of the
stitch. Occasionally patterns will call for you
to work in either the front loop only or back
loop only to achieve a certain look, but these
are exceptions and will be stated in the
pattern.

If you look again at the photo above, notice


how I have curved the piece away from me.
The side facing you is the outside. You will be
able to see the V shaped stitches.

To the right is a picture of the inside. You can


see the difference, there are no V’s visible and
the tail from your adjustable ring will be on the
inside.
