I am becoming hooked (:rotfl:) on amigurumi, now that I have got the hang of it, and I wondered if anyone had any book recommendations?
So far I have made an owl and a chick and they are sooooo cute!
To those that are starting out I found the book Cute and Easy Crochet a great guide with good projects and clear stitch pics and instructions.Taking responsibility one penny at a time!0 -

I haven't managed to get 'into' amigurumi yet. Not sure I will. What do you do with the things you make?
Might have to take a look at the book though.Diary: Conquering Debts Once and For All

At the moment because I am so chuffed with them they are sitting on my mantle piece in the living room :rotfl:not sure what I will do with them long term although my DD is keen to give them a home
The book I recommended is just general crochet not amigurumi.Taking responsibility one penny at a time!0 -

Unfortunately I don't either DS1 or DS2 would appreciate having a cute crocheted animal in their room. A few years ago maybe... but I think they're a little bit too old now. :rotfl:Diary: Conquering Debts Once and For All

Absolutely beautiful. I really must find time to try crochet again. My problem is that it doesn't 'flow' as does my knitting. I can knit and watch tv at the same time but I don't think I could take my eye off the crochet.0 -

I'm the opposite! Knitting takes every scrap of my concentration and I am still rubbish :rotfl:
I have been spinning a stock of yarn and I really need to get back to crocheting it all Taking responsibility one penny at a time!0
