Recently... I've randomly discovered the art of Amigurumi. I'm not really sure how, I kind of just came across some images on a blog and thought that it's the coolest thing ever!
Amigurimi is a Japanese art, which has been adapted across the world. You can create the cutest little items using simple crochet techniques.
See, I say simple.. but I've never used crochet in my life - it's something I'm desperate to learn as I'd love to make little presents for people's christmas stockings! Maybe my super-star Mum will teach me if I can track down a pattern!
I've collected a few images and blog lines. I think these are truly awesome and I can't wait to give it a go. Let me know what you think, have you given this a try?
I would seriously love one of these little cactus plants for my desk at work. Aren't they just fantastic?!?!?!!? And I wouldn't be able to kill it!

This is so cute it actually hurts!! I giggle every time I see this!!! |
I'll keep you posted with progress! Hopefully they'll look something similar to one of the above!
I'm obsessed with Amigurumi - I've bought so many items in the past and I keep annoying my boyfriend by putting them all around the house! SO CUTE. <3 I have a how-to book as well but I need a lot more practice. :P xoxox
ReplyDeleteHey Kate!!
ReplyDeleteReally? That is totally awesome! Where did you get your "how to" book from? I need something very basic as I've never done anything like this EVER!
Will definitely be planting them all over the house when I get making them.
In Love!
