You need surprisingly little to begin: a 4–5 mm hook, a ball of smooth, light-coloured worsted cotton (dark and fuzzy yarns hide your stitches) and a pair of scissors. Learn the chain, single crochet and the magic ring, and you can already make your first amigurumi.

US or UK terms?

Our patterns use US terms. A US single crochet is a UK double crochet — every pattern includes a quick conversion note so you never get lost.
