Tutorial: Picking up Stitches for Limbs

Hey! This is super useful: a video that explains how to pick up stitches in the middle of your work!

This is great for doll limbs :) 

There's also some written directions and pictures here (Scroll down).

All of this lovely information is from Knitting in Circles, which sells some cute patterns :)

Updates, oh joy!

For all of you who follow mochimochiland, some exciting stuff has been going on, including a nicenew footjoining tutorial, and some additions to their shop. Sheep, haystack. . . bathtub!? Eh!? Oh well, they're cute!

As for what's on my plate, well, I'll give some hints later when I have my camera, but I WILL say that it's a hat, I'm creating the pattern, it's cute, and I'm making more than one :D Guess, internet people, I dare you!

Very Cherry

There's been a bit of a bug in my camera, so I don't want to post any patterns I have yet. . . but, here, have a better one! These tutorials by geckogrrl are a great help, especially if you want to make your own amigurumi. I suggest you check them out, because they're probably the best amigurumi-related tutorials out there... at least, the best I could find.
Tutorial 1 is on shaping heads, and includes instructions for these sweet and sour cherries!

Tutorial 2 is all about bodies, with directions for the different types of body shapes, and oh-- there's a free pattern of it, too! Hurry up and make this cute spider!
