amigurumi

I love crocheting little things... like animals... fruits... cups of coffee... etc.
this is called amigurumi - a Japanese art (crocheting or knitting little animals or toys.)
There are many amigurumi books I want to buy D: But, I get most of my patterns free, online! :)
Here are some great sites that use:

This lionbrand site is also a great site with free patterns (for knitting too)... you have to register and sign in and all that, but I think it was worth it :)

All the sites I listed have a variety of free patterns, but if you couldn't find the pattern you were looking for, there are soo many other good sites as well! Just google something like "free amigurumi patterns" :) OR, make your own pattern! I have actually been wanting to make own for a while, but I haven't had enough time. When I get to it, I'll let you know how it goes :P

If you have any comments, questions, or suggestions, please comment me or email me! :)
