Amigurumi is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small, stuffed yarn creatures. The word is a formed by merging the sounds and meanings of two different words, ami meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi meaning stuffed doll. In the west they are called amigurumi. Amigurumi vary in size and there are no restrictions about size or look. While the art of amigurumi has been known in Japan for several decades, the craft first started appealing to the masses in other countries, especially in the West in 2003.


Not meant for small babies.
