I’m using this semi-cotton yarn, with the colors being varied, you can use your own choice colors, or as mine used. This kind of yarn is a 4-ply yarn that you can buy it online easily on ETSY. I’m also using hook size 2.3 mm and Hamanaka is one of my favorite brands, find Hamanaka hook on ETSY.

Try with other sport weight yarns that you have been familiar with. I recommend using Yarnart Jeans as an alternate, buy online with 30% off here. Besides, you will need some extra kinds of stuff as follows:

• Scissors, pins, needles, stuffings.

For your information, I have shared a post about my best yarn for amigurumi projects? You can read there to have more choices on choosing amigurumi yarns.

Some notes:

• For a better result, use single crochet cross stitch (yarn under) and invisible single crochet decrease stitch.
• Work in a continuous spiral unless otherwise specified.
