Amigurumi Birds

Amigurumi (crocheted or knitted stuffed toy) is the Japanese art of knitting orcrocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures. The word is derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll.[1] Amigurumi are typically animals, but can include artistic renderings or inanimate objects endowed with anthropomorphic features.


That's the definition and here are my first attempt at Amigurumi birds......

    Thanks Donna - these too were on my list of things to do - I like them because they are quick to make, cheerful & easy to do as a break away from a larger project! I hope to see some of yours when you make them!! Ali
