Amigurumi

"Amigrumi is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small, stuffed yarn creatures. The word, amigurumi, is a compound of two Japanese words. Ami means crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi means stuffed doll, so together it means a crocheted or knitted stuffed doll."

Kits can be bought with patterns and supplies already in a single box.

You can make anything using a pattern or make your own. There are a large variety of patterns on the web as well and in books.

Making a circle?

One of the key skills to start making amigurumi is knowing how to knitted circular: either with a magic circle while crocheting, or knitting in the round with double point needles.
