General Information
Do you love amigurumi as much as I do? It is actually how I started out designing! I would make these adorable little animals and sell them at craft fairs and online. Once I started designing professionally, I didnt design my little animals anymore. Then one day I had the idea of combining Tunisian crochet with amigurumi! Tunisian crochet is the perfect base for amigurumi. The stitches stretch, but not so much so that you see the stuffing through the fabric. And because it is a firm fabric, it will stand up to the toughest tots. You really need to know only one stitch: Tunisian Simple Stitch.

Youll learn how to increase and decrease as we go along. Thats it! Refer to our Tunisian Basics on page 3 to learn the stitch and its variations, or as a refresher for rusty skills. The amigurumi animals are constructed flat and then sewn together. This means you dont need to have a special double-ended crochet hook or know any special skills, and in most cases you dont even need a Tunisian crochet hooka standard hook will work just fine. And the best part? Each of the animals requires only one skein of yarn. Some do need small scraps of additional colors, but you should have those in your stash bin! Safety eyes are used for each toy, but if you plan on crocheting these animals for anyone younger than three years of age, try fabric paint or sewing on felt as a safer alternative.

I stuffed each animal with polyester fiberfill but any type of filling can be used. So grab your hook and yarn, and let's make some adorable animals! Rohn Strong

Follow our simple step-by-step tips to easily master this technique. Tunisian crochet is a type of crochet that is different from standard crochet techniques. Each row is worked in two steps: the forward pass and the return pass. In step one, the forward pass, loops are picked up across the stitches in the previous row. The first vertical bar of the previous row is skipped because the loop on the hook counts as the first stitch.

To work the last stitch of the row, insert the hook under both bars of the last stitch to make an even side edge. When beginning with a foundation chain, working in the back bar of the chain will give a nice finished edge and help tame the curling tendency of the fabric. All loops picked up in the forward pass are held on the hook until the return pass is worked. In step two, the return pass, the loops are worked off the hook. This row is usually worked the same way regardless of the way stitches are worked in the forward pass. When the return pass is finished, there will be one loop left on the hook, which counts as the first stitch of the next row.

In this pattern book, you will need to work the Tunisian Simple Stitch. This is the most basic Tunisian crochet stitch and is sometimes called the afghan stitch. It forms an even grid that has often been used as a base for surface stitching. The resulting dense fabric and its tendency to curl make this stitch perfect for amigurumi projects.

To fasten off the piece, work sl sts across the row during the forward pass as follows: Bind-off row: Skip first vertical bar, *insert hook from right to left under next vertical bar, yo, pull through 2 lps on hook, rep from * across the row. At the end of the row, fasten off. You will also need to use increases and decreases for shaping. The shaping stitches are made during the forward pass, so it is important to count your loops before beginning the return pass.

This stitch and its shaping variations are all you need to make each of the adorable animals in this book. Start with one of the smaller parts of the animal (like a fin or leg) for a little extra practice. The hardest part will be deciding which animal to make first! Tunisian Amigurumi - image 5
