Prerequisite: Beginning Crochet or equivalent experience.
Amigurumi is a Japanese word for a knitted or crocheted stuffed toy. In this class, we’ll learn the basics of a crocheted toy, including crocheting in the round, shaping, and attaching crocheted pieces. This is not a beginning class: students must have a basic understanding of crochet stitches, such as single and double crochet.
We’ll be making a jellyfish, using two colors of yarn. The pattern, fiberfill (for stuffing), and safety eyes will be provided.
Materials you need to bring: Yarn and hook. Materials can be purchased from Bazaar Girls on the day of the class: two skeins (different colors) of Kraemer Perfection worsted-weight yarn and a crochet hook. Since the tension of your stitches is more important with Amigurumi, your hook size may vary depending on whether you are a tight or loose crocheter. Typically, you’ll need a hook size from 3.5 to 5mm.
