Day 3 :: Making Your Stitches Tight

This is Day 3 of the 31 Days of Amigurumi. This 31 Day series is full of how-to's for designing and creating your very own amigurumi. Whether you're a beginner at ami's or just need help on a certain technique, there's something here for everyone.

In my opinion, if you're just starting out and you want to bring your amigurumi to the next level then tight stitches is where to start. Since these little creations are stuffed full of white poly-fil, it's vital for the stitches to be tight so it won't be seen. The last thing you want is those specks of white showing through and a kid maybe pulling them out. Not good!

Check out my video here for my tips and tricks for getting tight stitches.

That's all for today. I hope it helped you in some way. If not, keep practicing on getting tighter stitches for your ami's or use a smaller hook. ;)  Tomorrow we are going to talk about starting your work with a magic loop.  See you then.

Happy crocheting,
