Most of my inspirations to make amigurumis come from Pinterest and Instagram. Recently, i've been seeing kawaii potatoes everywhere and can't seem to get it off my mind. I tried making an ami version of them with different expressions and happy with the way they turned out. It's a perfect project for beginners as you don't have to attach any pieces and very less sewing involved.
- Yarn in light beige colour
- Crochet hook according to the size of your yarn.
- Tapestry needle.
- A little bit of brown and pink felt.
- Safety eyes ( I have used 5 mm safety eyes).
- Black thread (for embroidering mouth and eyebrows).
