FAQs

What is the best single crochet stitch for amigurumi? ›

Is yarn under or over better for amigurumi? ›

When making garments, where drape is more of a factor, you should crochet by yarning over as well. However, if you're making amigurumi or a tapestry crochet project, I highly recommend yarning under! Since I make so much amigurumi, I continue to use my yu/yo method most of the time.

Can you use normal yarn for amigurumi? ›

There isn't just one type of amigurumi yarn. You can use many kinds of yarn, from acrylic to wool, and different weighted yarn, from light to bulky, to create all sorts of creatures.

What does k mean in crochet? ›

The Treble Cross (trx), or K-stitch (k), is a combination stitch consisting of a modified treble-crochet two together (tr2tog), a chain stitch (ch) and a double crochet (dc) worked into the side of the modified tr2tog.

What is the least wasteful crochet stitch? ›

Basic stitches like double crochet or treble crochet tend to use less yarn and produce much taller stitches than the slip stitch and single crochet stitches.

Can you crochet with cat fur? ›

Spin the pet hair into yarn so you can crochet with fur.

Spinning twists the hairs together to form a ply (single strand). Two common spinning tools are the drop spindle and the spinning wheel. A drop spindle has a weight at one end of the shaft. You set the spindle turning in the same way that you would spin a top.

Can you crochet a cat blanket? ›

Are crochet cat toys safe? ›

What crochet stitch is easiest? ›

Let's start at the very beginning with the crochet chain stitch. It's the most basic and the first one that beginners learn since it's also the first stitch used when starting new crochet patterns.
