What is Amigurumi Crochet?

Amigurumi is a form of crochet that originates from Japan and translates to ‘crocheted (or knitted) stuffed doll’. It is quite easy to pick up as it mostly just uses one stitch, the double crochet (known as the single crochet in the US). The stitches are worked in the round, rather than in rows.

What is working
in the round?

Working in the round means just that, working around in a tube shape without turning. In amigurumi crochet we work in a continuous spiral without joining the end of the round to the first stitch with a slip stitch. This method means there is no visible seam, but it does mean you need to use a stitch marker or scrap yarn so you know where each round starts. Armed with just a simple stitch with some increasing and decreasing (stitches) you can make all manner of shapes whether it be for a doll or animal.
