What’s the Stitch About Knitting Machines?
Let's talk about knitting machines! What are they, how do they work, and does it count as hand crafting if you use one? Why choose a knitting machine vs knitting by hand?
Amigurumi is the Japanese art of crocheting or knitting small animals or anthropomorphic creatures. The name is a combination of the Japanese words ami, which means to knit or crochet, and nuigurumi, which means soft toy.
All of our kits are exclusive and made with the designers we love most. The level of difficulty varies according to the project but we have taken care to offer kits that are also suitable for those who are trying their hand at a new technique for the first time .
In each kit you will find all the materials and accessories needed to make the piece. The yarn chosen for these kits is our iconic Piuma yarn in pure extra fine merino wool and Oeko-Tex certified . The padding is hypoallergenic and made from recycled polyester .
** Note you will need a crochet hook***
This collection is made in collaboration with Airali Design . Four super kawaii little animals made extra soft thanks to the use of Piuma yarn.
Treat yourself or give a kit! You will not regret.
