5 Tips for Beginner Amigurumi Makers – Start Your First Lovey Today!
If you're new to crocheting amigurumi or loveys, it might feel a little overwhelming at first. But don't worry — every expert was once a beginner! Here are 5 simple tips to help you get started with confidence.
1. Choose the Right Yarn
For your first project, pick a plush or velvet yarn like YarnArt Dolce or Himalaya Dolphin Baby. It's soft, easy to work with, and hides small mistakes. Plus, babies love the texture!

🪢 2. Use the Right Hook Size
A common mistake is using a hook that's too big. For plush yarn, I recommend:
6 mm hook for the main parts
5 mm hook for smaller details
This keeps your stitches tight and prevents stuffing from showing through.
