Hey guys!

Just wanted you all to know that I just bought this book! I'll be sure
and share when it gets here.

Also, just to let you know .... for the true amigurumi 'look' .... eyes
are set wide apart, low on face, and mostly the head is larger than body.

It's really quite easy ... I don't even follow a pattern most times ....
they're done in the round ... just a ball for head (larger than you plan
the body), a small oval for the body, smaller ovals for arms and legs ...
stuff and sew together. Then I just dress, or decorate in various ways.

Eyes are black beads ... or you can use the plastic or glass animal eyes.
Nose and mouth are either stitched on with embroidery thread ... or there
is no mouth or nose ... up to you.

Hugs,
Dee

That sounds easy enough! They kind of look like those stuffed dogs and cats
that you can buy in WalMart (and likely other stores too) with the humongous
heads and small bodies... except these are made of yarn. So cute! ;o)

that.
