My first Amigurumi... a caterpillar! Learned this new skill from teacher Amy of Hooked. Sort of easy to make but require loads of patience... a must-have for anything handmade with love!
From Wikipedia: Amigurumi (編みぐるみ?,
lit. crocheted or knitted stuffed toy) is the Japanese art of knitting or
crocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures. The word is
derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or
knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll. Amigurumi are typically animals,
but can include artistic renderings or inanimate objects endowed with
anthropomorphic features, as is typical in Japanese culture.

| Tada! The finished project! |
Ain't my caterpillar cute??? Anyway, it was totally satisfying once completed but still need a lot of practice to perfect the skill. Have been Googling for more easy dolls to practice but can't decide on which one as they are all so adorable!!!
