10/21/2019 Annaboo's house: Crochet Korknisse and Toadstool Tutorial

The korknisse and Toadstool arre crocheted Amigurumi-style. This is a Japanese crochet form which
roughly translates as 'crocheted or knitted stuffed doll'.

- If you can make a magic ring (or ch2 and make your scs in the 2nd chain from the hook) and do
single crochet, you can create amigurumi.
There's no need to make a chain at the beginning of every round, or to join with a slip stitch, you
just keep going round and round ... Remember to use a stitch marker at the beginning of every
round, but don't worry too much if you make a mistake, ami crochet is very forgiving!

Here we go ..
To make Korknisse.
