Tools of the Trade

Tools of the trade!  These are some of my must-have items when crocheting amigurumi:

  • Tiny 2 mm Clover Amour crochet hook to get nice tight stitches.
  • Clover lock ring stitch markers to help me keep track of my unjoined rounds and to mark important stitches!  I’ve had a set of these for a number of years now, and not a single one has broken on me!
  • A sharp pair of scissors
  • Clover Bent Tip Tapestry Needle Set Chibi: These are a recent purchase and I love how these yarn needles have a bent tip!  They make weaving in ends, attaching limbs to amigurumi, and picking up stitches much easier!  I also love how you can keep the needles safe in the cute clear case that it comes with too!
