CROCHETING TIPS

1.What is X-shape stitch/V-shape stitch? Which one is better?
X-shape stitch or V-shape stitch depends on the way you pull the yarn through the loop. If you yarn
over the hook from back to front, you’re making a V-shape stitch. If you yarn under the hook, then it’s
a X-shape stitch. Both ways are fine, you can crochet whichever you find easier.
V-shape stitch helps your amigurumi look bigger, while X-shape stitch makes your amigurumi more
beautiful and helps to make the amigurumi tighter.

 

2.Right side vs wrong side? Which one is correct?
You can see the difference between the right side and wrong side in the photos bellow.
When you crochet mini-sized toys/dolls, it is unable to turn the sides. Therefore, it is normal having
the wrong side out

 

3.Hide the yarn 
For the remaining yarn, you can use a tapestry needle and weave it vertically through stitches. Repeat
a couple times to make sure it stays firmly.

 

4.How to count stitches? 
Do not count the stitch on the hook

 

Chain 6, start from 2nd chain on the hook
For the oval shapes ( arms and legs parts of this book)

 

5.How to change the yarn color correctly?

 

6.Invisible Decrease 
Normal decrease (photo bellow) will make a large hole, so we should use insivible decrease. Just crochet
on front loop only.

 

7.Weave in the remaining 6 sts on the last rnd

 

8.Finishing
