What is amigurumi?

In my early days of crocheting, when i took an interest in the crochet animals, i kept hearing the term crochet amigurumi, it never made sense and i never understod what i was. So in short, Amigurumi is the Japanese art of crocheting or knitting yarn creatures. It comes from two Japanese words: “ami”, meaning “crocheted or knitted”, and “nuigurumi”, which means “stuffed doll”.

There’s a lot of variety when it comes to amigurumi – you can make your plushie as big or as small as you’d like. Still, most crochet helo kitty amigurumi patterns you will find are for small creatures like crochet key chains.

Can I Crochet A Hello Kitty As A Beginner?

Yes you can. If you have an eye for detail and are really good at following instructions, then get ready for your next crochet cat project! However, there are a few crochet stitches and notions you will have to be comfortable with before attempting to crochet.

Stitches and techniques to master

There are a few stitches and techniques that you’ll find in nearly every amigurumi pattern. Here are the most popular ones that you will see.

Single crochet

Many patterns use short single crochet stitches to keep the fabric tight and close. You don’t want any of that stuffing popping out of your squishy creature.

Increases and decreases

You’ll also need to know how to sc increase and sc decrease. You’ll use increases and decreases to create curves and volume in your amigurumi patterns, especially in the head of your hello kitty.

Crocheting in spiral rounds

Most crochet amigurumi and made in spiral rounds. That means you’ll be crocheting around and around in a circle. Make sure you have stitch markers on hand in order to keep track of your rounds!

Changing Colors

Crochet animals are often quite colorful. Especially when it comes to working the feet of your crochet hello kitty.

Crochet Hello Kitty Materials

To crochet this splushie, you will need the same materials as would be be needed in a crochet amigurumi pattern.

Best Yarn for Making Crochet Animals

Most amigurumi patterns suggest using cotton yarn in either a DK or worsted weight. Cotton yarn is easy for beginners to use, and gives your projects great stitch definition, too!

Don’t have cotton? Not a problem. You can use worsted-weight acrylic too.

What Other Supplies Do You Need for Amigurumi?

As with all crochet projects, amigurumi projects require yarn and a crochet hook. You’ll also want to have a yarn needle and scissors. Other tools that are often needed for amigurumi projects include:

• stitch markers
• embroidery thread (for details)
• polyester filling (stuffing)
• and safety eyes

How to care for crochet amigurumis

• Regular Dusting: Dust your amigurumis regularly with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristle brush to prevent dirt and dust from accumulating on the surface.
• Spot Cleaning: If your amigurumi gets a small stain, use a damp cloth or sponge with a mild soap or fabric cleaner. Gently blot the stain, and avoid rubbing, as it may damage the fibers or colors.
• Hand Washing: For more significant cleaning, hand-wash your amigurumis in cool water with a gentle detergent. Gently agitate the water, then rinse thoroughly to remove all soap. Be careful not to wring or twist the amigurumi to avoid stretching or misshaping it.
• Drying: After washing, gently press out excess water with a clean, dry towel. Reshape the amigurumi to its original form, ensuring all parts are properly aligned, and then allow it to air dry on a clean, flat surface. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources as they may cause colors to fade or yarn to become brittle.
• Storage: When not in use, store your amigurumis in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of them to prevent distortion.
• Pests: Be vigilant about pests, as insects like moths may be attracted to natural fibers. Use natural deterrents like cedar balls or lavender sachets in your storage area.
• Repairs: If any part of your amigurumi gets damaged, such as loose stitches or stuffing coming out, repair it promptly to prevent further damage. You can sew up any holes or reattach loose parts using a tapestry needle and matching yarn.
• Love and Gentle Play: If your amigurumi is a child’s toy, remind them to play gently with it. These are handmade items, and rough handling can cause damage.

Remember, amigurumis are delicate, so care and attention are essential to keep them looking lovely and in good condition. If you treat them with love and care, they can last a long time and bring joy to your life.
