A step past your first make

Small crochet pieces that add one new shape or one new trick. Not a full character, and not a repeat of what you already know.

Who this is for

You have finished a character. You can work a magic ring, count a round, and close a piece without it going lumpy. What you want now is to keep practising without committing another three evenings to a full plushie.

What makes these worth doing

Each piece introduces something the beginner characters do not cover: a colour change at a specific point, a scalloped edge, a lift off lid, a standing collar, or working flat in rows rather than around in a spiral.

That last one matters more than it sounds. Amigurumi is worked in a continuous spiral, so if you have only made characters you have never met a turning chain. Flat pieces are where that arrives, usually with no warning. Our guide to spirals versus joined rounds explains the difference.

What comes with each

  • A full video lesson, filmed stitch by stitch
  • A downloadable written pattern
  • Right-handed and left-handed versions, filmed separately rather than mirrored
  • An optional yarn mini kit
