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.
Amigurumi knitting techniques are very easy. You can find many handcrafts prepared with these techniques on my site. What is Amigurumi for beginners in Amigurumi handwork? How to knit amigurumi? In this blog, where you can find the answers to the questions with pictures, you will be able to learn about Amigurumi in all details.

We knit an additional 2 sc, fold the part in half and knit
5 sc for both walls.
1) Glue the spout on the 12th – 13th row.
2) We cut out 2 circles with a diameter of 13 – 14 mm from felt. We glue eyes 1 cm in diameter on felt circles on the side as shown in the photo. Using a black felt-tip pen, decorate the eyes (draw around)
3) We glue the eyes on the 10-12th row of the head at adistance of 8 sc between them.
4) We make an eye tightening. Mark points from N 1 to N 4as shown in the photo.
We use a needle and orange thread for sewing.
The process is described in detail in the App.
5) We embroider a smile. Do not tighten the thread!
We mark the points with basting needles as shown in the photo.
Point N 1 is between 13 and 14 rows of head,
N 2 – between 14 and 15 rows, N 3 – between 14 and 15 rows
at a distance of 3 sc from point 2, N 4 – between 15 and 16
rows (mark it in the middle of points 3 and 2). Points N 5
and 6 are marked in the same way as points 3 and 4.
In a needle with a large eye we thread black yarn into one
thread, insert it into the last row of the head, leave a small
tail and bring the needle to point N 1, then to N 2, to N 3, to
N 4, to N 2, to N 4 , at N 5, at N 6, at N 2 and again at point
N 6. We bring out the needle next to the last row of the
head, tie a knot, cut off the tips.
6) We embroider the eyebrows
We mark the points with basting needles.
The upper ones (N 2 and N 3) are between 5 and 6 row at a
distance of 5 sc between them.
The lower ones (N 1 and N 4) are between 8 and 9 row at a
distance of 16 sc between them as shown in the photo on
the next page.
We thread a black thread into the needle in two threads,
insert the head into the last row, fix the thread and insert
the needle in order from N 1 to N 4. Draw the needle next
to the last row of the head, fix and cut off.
7) Sew on the ears.
In order to give the shape we need, we count 6 sc from the
last (18th) sc and bend the ear. For the left ear, bend it to
the left, for the right one – to the right.
We fix the ears with basting needles in a semicircle as
shown in the photo. We place the front part from 4 to 6
rows of the head, and the back – from 4 to 11 rows.
We use a needle with an orange thread for sewing. Sew on
the ears for both walls as shown in the photo.
8) Well, and the final part of the muzzle design. We comb
from 12 to 22 rows of the head with a brush (comb) for cats
🙂 Alternatively – a rigid part of the Velcro.
9) Sew the head to the body.
With basting needles we fix the body between 18 and 19
rows of the head.
We use a needle with an orange thread for sewing (see
App for how to fix the thread on a knitted product) and
sew on both half-loops (see App)
10) We attach the handles.
We fix the hands with basting needles between 20 and 21
rows of the body and sew for both half-loops using a
needle and an orange sewing thread.
