What amigurumi is
Amigurumi are small stuffed figures crocheted in the round. Each piece starts with a magic ring and grows in a spiral of single crochet stitches; increases make it wider and decreases close it again. Stuff it, sew the parts together, add the eyes, and a ball of yarn becomes a little animal.
Why it is a good way to learn
Amigurumi only needs a handful of stitches, and the pieces are small, so you finish something real in an evening or two. Every round is counted in the pattern, which means you always know if you are on track. Once the magic ring and single crochet click, every figure in this collection is within reach.
Choosing a kit
Start with the Turtle or the Frog and Friends set if you have never crocheted: simple rounded shapes, a few colors and plenty of practice. The Mallard Duck adds color changes, and the Shark is the largest, with a two-color body and fins to sew on.
What is in a kit
Yarn in the colors you need, a crochet hook, a yarn needle, stitch markers, eyes and printed instructions. Most kits include fiberfill stuffing too; each kit page lists exactly what is in its box.
How long it takes
A small figure like the turtle or the duck takes about 2 to 4 hours, the shark about 3 to 5, and the set of four about 6 to 10 hours in total. The first rounds are always the slowest; after that, you find a rhythm.
A few tips before you start
Crochet fairly tightly so the stuffing doesn't show through. Mark the first stitch of every round with a stitch marker and count at the end of each round. Stuff as you go, before the opening gets too small, and leave long yarn tails for sewing the parts together.
Caring for finished figures
Spot clean with a damp cloth and let the figure air dry. Keep it out of strong sunlight if you want the colors to stay bright.

Questions
Can I learn to crochet with one of these kits?
Yes. Amigurumi only needs a magic ring, single crochet, increases and decreases. Start with the turtle or the set of four, practice the first rounds on a spare piece of yarn, and follow the pattern round by round.
What do I need besides the kit?
A pair of scissors. The turtle kit doesn't list stuffing, so keep a small handful of toy stuffing nearby for that one; the others include fiberfill.
How long does an amigurumi take?
A small figure takes about 2 to 4 hours, the shark about 3 to 5, and the set of four about 6 to 10 hours in total.
How do I clean a crocheted figure?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and let it air dry.
