Amigurumi fish (knitted)

This fish loves to swim with his friends, and once you started making one, you won’t stop until you are surrounded by a big school of fish. He is a real stash-eater and you will just love to use all the small leftovers from your stash to make more colourful fishes.

You will not need to be an expert to knit this cutie:Techniques used are

• knit in the round and flat
• simple increases and decreases.

Pictures are included and if you get stuck somewhere (which is really unlikely) I’ll be happy to help.

The gauge is not important, but you should use needles appropriate for the yarn you like to use.

What you need:

• 5 double-pointed needles 2,5/3mm (depending on the yarn you use)
• Approx. 20g of self-striping or colourful leftover yarn in the colours you prefer
• Small amounts of white yarn for the eyes
• Small amount of black yarn for the eyes
• Fiberfill to stuff the body
• Tapestry needle

The fish on the pictures are knit with worsted weight yarn and 2.5 mm needles.
