First Amigurumi


I got these patterns from Etsy. They were both pretty easy, since I needed a quick project. The elephant was the first time I did amigarumi. I started the Deep V Argyle Vest from Eunny Jang, and already my gauge was off, so I had to restart it. I'm using Brown Sheep Nature Spun Sport, which I like a lot. The instructions are really detailed, so I haven't had any problems so far. Another thing I realized was that the dpns I was using for socks are actually smaller than other size 2 needles, like Addi turbo. I don't know why they would be different sizes, but my according to my needles sizer, the Addi turbo are bigger than size 2. That's kind of weird.
