Finally, I got to try out brushed crochet!

Last night, I put together my first brushed crochet amigurumi and absolutely LOVE the technique! I made up this little fuzzy whazzit with soft alpaca yarn and I can't wait to start making some more of these little cuties!!


I also tried the technique out on a more traditional amigurumi lion to give him a fuzzy mane. Check it out!


I'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas on how this technique worked out -- or see your pictures if you've gotten a chance to try it yourself. Now, I'm off to play with some more brushed crochet!

  2. JB - Thanks for your kind words! It turns out that the fuzzy whazzits are really addictive to make too. As soon as I finished tweaking, I'm going to get the pattern out for others to try!
