THANKS,
WOOBLERS
To the oodles of Wooblers who
learned to crochet with a Woobles kit
CONTENTS
INTRODUCTION
Im Justine, co-founder of The Woobles. We
made the first crochet kit that taught tens of
thousands of complete beginners (and count-
ing!) to crochet.
I went down the rabbit hole of amigurumithe art
of crocheting small, stuffed yarn plushiesback
in 2016, when I wanted to make a personalized gift
for a friend. What could be more personal than a
handmade plushie of her favorite animal?
So off I went, piecing together YouTube videos,
diagrams, and crochet blogs. I rejiggered what
I found to fit what I was working on. I made a lot
of mistakes, and I did a lot more of hoping for
the best.
In the end, I made a very lumpy and misshapen
penguin (pictured on the previous page). Lumpy
and misshapen as he was, I was still proud of him.
My friend adored him. And to my delight, so did
everyone else who caught a glimpse of him too.
And that, my woobly friend, is why I made this
book. So that you can experience and share that
joy, too.
If its your first time crocheting, start learning
the basics with a Woobles beginner kit from
thewoobles.com/kits . If youre already comfy
with grabbing yarn with a hook and putting the
hook in the right hole (yep, thats crocheting
in a nutshell), then youre ready to tackle any
pattern in this book.
One more thing before you get wooblin. Youll
notice that the patterns get more elaborate
towards the end of each section. Some of the
patterns might look a bit beyond what you think
you can do right now, but dont worrythats
what The Woobles is all about: proving to your-
self that you can always learn something new.
Youd be surprised by how much you can learn,
a little bit at a time.
So get ready. Youre about to blow your friends
and familys minds with the most heartfelt hand-
made crocheted gifts. Better yet, youre going to
do it without the frustration of piecing together
YouTube videos, diagrams, and crochet blogs
while hoping for the best. (I can make no guaran-
tees on the mistakes part, though. When it comes
to crochet, thats just a part of the journey.)
Everything you need to know to make any pat-
tern in this book is either in the book or on our
website. Because as nice as it is to do something
completely offline, sometimes you just need a
good new-fashioned video to make things click.
I hope this book becomes your go-to resource
to make the cutest crochet memories for many
years to come. I hope the amigurumi you make
from this book instantly bring huge smiles to you
and your loved ones faces. And I hope the skills
you learn from this book give you the confidence
to keep pushing yourself to try new things.
Happy wooblin!
INTRODUCTION
EVERYTHING YOU NEED
When it comes down to it, you only need two things to crochet: yarn and a
crochet hook.
YARN
All the projects in this book use The Woobles Easy Peasy Yarn. If youre pretty
new to crocheting, I recommend using this yarn because its been custom-made
for beginners. Its more like a drawstring and less like what you might tradi-
tionally think of as yarn, which means two great things for beginners:
1. It cant split. Say goodbye to snagged hooks and frayed yarn.
2. Its easy to see your stitches. No more second guessing if youre look-
ing at a stitch, or just some pesky yarn fibers that make up the stitch.
Your final amigurumi will come out looking a lot cleaner, too! If you cant get
your hands on The Woobles Easy Peasy Yarn, you can use any medium-weight
#4 yarn.
YARN WEIGHT
Yarn weight sounds like it refers to, well, weight. But surprise! It doesnt; it
actually refers to thickness. The higher the number, the fatter the yarn. There
are seven weights, which usually look something like this on a yarn label.
Multiple types of yarn fall into each weight category:
WEIGHT
CATEGORY
TYPES
Lace
Super Fine
Fine
Light
Medium
Bulky
Super Bulky
Jumbo
Fingering
Sock, Fingering, Baby
Sport, Baby
DK, Light Worsted
Worsted, Afghan, Aran
Chunky, Craft, Rug
Super, Bulky, Roving
Jumbo, Roving
Patterns might reference the category or type of yarn. If you ever want to
swap out a patterns recommended yarn but still want your piece to come
out the same size, pick a yarn in the same weight category.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED
HOOKS
Crochet hooks come in lots of materials and sizes. The most common mate-
rials are plastic, aluminum, and bamboo. Each one has its pros and cons
when it comes to cost, ergonomics, and ease of gliding yarn on the hook.
I personally like hooks with an aluminum shaft and rubber handle. Yarn
glides smooth like butter on an aluminum shaft, and the size and feel of a
rubber handle make it easy to hold.
As for hook size, thats determined by yarn weightwhich, remember, really
means yarn thickness. The thicker the yarn, the bigger the hook youll need.
Luckily, patterns take the guesswork out by recommending both a yarn
weight and hook size.
Hook sizes can be written in letters or millimeters. Different companies
define letters differently, so just to be safe, I recommend choosing hooks
based on millimeters. The millimeters refer to the diameter of the hook, and
math dont lie. Here are some common hook sizes:
MILLIMETER
US SIZE
UK SIZE
2.25
2.75
3.25
3.5
3.75
4.5
5.5
B-1
C-2
D-3
E-4
F-5
G-6
-
H-8
I-9
J-10
-
If youre picking your own yarn, the yarn label will have a recommended hook
size that looks something like this. In this case, an I-9 / 5.5mm hook.
TIP
When crocheting amigurumi, use a slightly smaller hook than whats
recommended on the label. This way, your stitches will be smaller and its
less likely the stuffing will show. I tend to size down by at least 1mm.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED
All the patterns in this book use a US G-6 / 4mm hook.
TIP
Since everyone crochets slightly differently, you might want to play with the
size of the hook to get the ideal stitch size. For example, if you notice lots
of holes in your amigurumi, go half a millimeter down in hook size. If its
hard to put the hook under a stitch, go half a millimeter up in hook size.
