Letter from the Editors

Dear Crocheter,

As time goes on you realize the more you crochet the more experience you’re

project that took you a while to work up. Don’t be scared to go outside of your
comfort zone and try something new.

Have you ever attempted to crochet Amigurumi patterns? There are so many
different little characters you can make and fall in love with. Keep these creatures
for yourself or give them as gifts. We’ve created this awesome eBook for your
enjoyment so we hope you try them out!

I show how to do the ears in a video

elephant. But I'll try to explain here.
(If you still have troubles watch this
video and fast forward to 5:15) Take
the open ends of the ear (half circle)
and point the ends away from the
front side of the ear. Sew the edges
of those ends together. Thread the
tail of the yarn from the middle of the
ear and out through the side and pull.
This will shrink up the ear and give it

until you are happy with it. Sew edge want. I used black embroidery thread
piece that you just sewed together to for mine and went in through the
the head. Use a long pin to hold it in back of the head and out through
place while you get a couple stitches front, created the mouth and brought
in. See pictures below. the thread back out through the
same hole in the back of the head,
knotted the ends off and hid the knot
