Getting Started With Your Hippo So the first time I actually finished a hippo was summer 2023 when my sister asked me to make one for her kid and honestly I didn’t think it would be that hard but there’s this whole thing with the legs that I’ll get to later. Anyway you’re gonna need […]
okay so wolf amigurumi patterns Right so I made this wolf back in spring 2022 when I was binge-watching some crime documentary series and honestly the whole thing took way longer than I expected but it turned out pretty decent. The main thing with wolf patterns is they’re basically just dogs but you gotta make […]
Getting Started with the Body So the dachshund body is basically just a long tube and honestly that’s what makes it easier than some other amigurumi patterns. You start with a magic ring and work in continuous rounds – no joining, just spiral around and around. I made one of these back in spring 2022 […]

I made this Hufflepuff scarf back in spring 2022 and used Red Heart Super Saver because it was cheap and I figured yellow is yellow right? Wrong. […]
Getting Started with Barbie Clothes So the hook size is actually way more important than people think. I usually use a 1.5mm or 1.75mm steel hook for Barbie stuff because you need it tight enough that the stuffing doesn’t show through, or in the case of clothes, that it actually looks like fabric and not […]
