What is amigurumi?
Originating from Japan, the word amigurumi is a combination of two Japanese words: ami meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi meaning stuffed doll. Most commonly, amigurumi uses crochet techniques to stitch together adorable animals, stuffed dolls and toys. You can make these stuffed toys in any size you'd like but they are most likely adorably small and crocheted in DK-weight and aran yarns.
