What does amigurumi means?
The word Amigurumi comes from Japanese. The Japanese call handicrafts knitted with crochet and needle as Ami. The Japanese call the toys that are filled with objects such as fibers or cotton as Nuigurumi. The word Amigurumi is derived as a combination of these two words.

Head decoration
Sew the muzzle between about 13 and 21 row. We mark with pins where the eyes will be. They are located between 13 and 14 row, the distance between them is about 7 sbn. In these places we do
tightening as follows: insert a long needle with a thread into the base head and draw at the point of the first eye. We step aside 1 sbn, enter in this point the needle and bring it to the base of the head. We tighten the thread well and we tie. We repeat the same with the second eye.
Look in the 2nd photo, what the muzzle looks like after tightening:
Then, in the places of the dips, we sew bead eyes. To make the eye look more
“Alive”, with a white thread, make a stitch at the bottom of the eye.
We embroider the eyebrows and the mouth with a black thread.
Next, we sew on the ears, at about the level of the eighth row.
