This one is a must for your crochet stitches toolbox! Today, we gonna take a look at the way of the double crochet stitch. Usually, abbreviated with dc, it has nothing to do with comics and also there is no such thing as a counterpart marvel stitch. This is not the most-used stitch in Amigurumi by far, but it’s actually major versatile for things like details in Amigurumi and for any kind of wearables for sure. And that’s exactly why it shouldn’t be missing in any serious crocheter’s skill set (also not in any funny crocheter neither by the way).

Today, we got some magic to do! And no, I have not eventually received my letter from Hogwarts after waiting for over 30 years. But maybe even better, I will show y’all how to crochet the Magic Ring (or sometimes also referred to as Magic Circle).

If you are something like me, you totally dig chainz, cause chainz are just pure 🔥, I’m NEVER (and when I say never, I actually mean NEVER) leavin’ the house without one. Starting off a new crochet project with a foundation chain however, not so much. You basically have to go the whole length for an additional row and working into the initial chain… always is such a pain in the ass to get the hook in and never ends up looking as clean as one would want it to be.

I’m bringing another sweet lil’ tutorial to you with a new less-known crochet stitch among Amigurumi designers that will really be helpful in adding that certain spice to already good Amigurumi and crochet designs. I will show you how to crochet the Moss Stitch. Whether you are a beginner of crochet altogether or a veteran just lookin’ up how to crochet the Moss stitch (also known as Linen stitch) for the 100th time, this tutorial is for you. While crocheting Amigurumi is generally based on the premise of simplicity (as are a lot of things Japanese, actually attributing to their beauty), hence not using too many different kinds of stitches, sometimes adding a couple of stitches other than single crochet, increase or decrease can add that certain swagger to your design (and often just really make your life designing Amigurumi a lot easier).

In this quick tutorial, I will show you how to crochet the Puff stitch and the Bobble stitch and explain what the difference between these 2 quite similar but still unique crochet stitches is. Classic designs of Amigurumi rely mostly on the arrangement of simple crochet stitches such as the single crochet, increases and decreases. This is usually more than enough to make any design work and also part of the underlying philosophy of Amigurumi: creating shapes with as simple as possible building blocks.
