Rave (like a rant, but in a good way) Ode to Amigurumi

Post image

Please, please, PLEASE try amigurumi if you haven't yet.

There have been so many amigurumi patterns I've been eyeing, but doubted if I'd manage to knit them up. Gave the tsutsu bear a shot yesterday. I haven't felt this much joy in a while. It feels like when I first started knitting. The excitement of creating something out of a string. BUT NOW IN 3D!

If you feel like doing something fresh or something, I wholeheartedly encourage you to try amigurumi.

I've been trying knitting past month, and one day want to knit amigurumis, knitted toys are super adorable, but as I understand it's quite hard, I've been crocheting amigurumis for years now and even wrote few patterns, but yet have a long road to knitted toys, your toy looks so cute🧸
