What was your inspiration?

I wanted to design crocheted toys that look knit. The results are adorable, but it does take a bit more time than traditional crocheted amigurumi.

What are you most proud of?

Perfecting this technique took me a few weeks - and then it all just came together. Such an amazing feeling to finally figure out how to get the look I wanted after a lot of struggle initially.
