I started learning how to crochet in June 2021. I had been seeing people making their own crochet stuffed animals and I wanted to be able to do that too. So, I sat down and taught myself how to crochet and fell in love with it. I joined Facebook groups to ask questions, and gradually my creations started to look better and better. Now I’m one of the people on the Facebook group that answers the questions that others have. One of the most common questions I see is “where do I start?” So, I’m creating this quickstart guide to amigurumi to help others who want to learn and not be overwhelmed by all there is to learn.
