Materials

Yarns:

- Red: body and containers

- Black: eyes and mouth

- White: highlights of eyes

Yarn weight is not very important, but please choose the hook accordingly.

I used Catona cotton from Scheepjes (which is 50 grams - 125 m) with a 2.5 mm hook. The end product is around 12*12*7 cm big.

Please note that by using thicker yarn and a bigger crochet hook, your end product will be bigger than mine. You can also create a smaller product by using thinner yarn and a smaller crochet hook.

For stuffing:

You can use the polyfill or any other type of filling you like.

Others:

You can cut cardboard into a round shape, and then glue it to the inside of the bottom body part. This can help the amigurumi to hold its shape better.
