Amigurumi is a Japanese crocheting technique that allows you create stuffed toys, dolls, and figurines. Unlike regular crochet, where stitches are worked flat in rows, amigurumi are done in joined or continuous rounds to achieve three-dimensional shapes suitable for stuffing. Stitches used for making basic amigurumi include single crochet, increase, decrease, and magic ring.
To make an amigurumi, you should prepare regular supplies such as yarn and a matching hook as well as some additional materials, such as stuffing and safety eyes. If you want to achieve the best results, always refer to the pattern supply recommendations. Small, intricate toys require fine fibers (sport or fingering) and smaller hooks, while big chunky plushies can be done with super bulky chenille yarn and a large hook. Polyester fiberfill is the most popular choice for stuffing, ensuring your amigurumi has a soft and round look.

Yes, it is! Although creating three-dimensional toys can seem like a daunting task, there are many amigurumi patterns for beginners. Projects with simple shaping and minimal sewing are totally manageable for those with little or no experience. To make amigurumi, you don’t need to know any special stitches – these patterns use mostly basic single crochet along with simple increasing and decreasing. You can also check out our video tutorial on the magic ring technique, which is commonly used to start amigurumi projects.
If you want your handmade amigurumi to be soft, huggable, and perfectly shaped, proper stuffing is crucial. Polyester fiberfill is a great option commonly used by crocheters. It’s light, fluffy, and holds shape well. When stuffing your toy, it’s best to add the filling gradually before closing the amigurumi. You can also adjust and distribute the filling with your fingers to ensure an even, smooth shape. Your toy should be soft and squishy but not too firm, so be careful not to overstuff it.
Plastic safety eyes are very popular in amigurumi projects, giving your toy that nice polished look. However, they’re not recommended for babies and young children under three. Instead, you try DIY safety eyes for amigurumi that can be crocheted or embroidered. There are multiple ways to create amigurumi eyes, depending on the style you want to achieve. It can be realistic or cartoonish eyes with lots of detail or just a few thread lines for a minimalist look and a bit of handmade touch.
