“My name is Annelie, and unique crochet designs for big and small kids are my passion. My instructions are simple and easy to understand, perfect for beginners. I love seeing children’s bright eyes when they discover my creations. On my Instagram account, I write about children’s handcrafts, I share my new designs, and teach techniques. Fall under the spell of my handmade world!” 

Gallimelmas · @gallimelmas

“Since 2009, I have made crochet and amigurumis my passion and my way of life through my blog Gallimelmas e Imaginancias. My main reason for designing crochet and amigurumi patterns is because it is the thing that makes me feel the happiest. I imagine characters, draw them, and then take them onto the crochet hook which is a magical experience, and I live this every day. On my blog, I like to share this love for crochet by helping other crocheters. I publish tips, advice, tutorials, recommendations, free patterns… because I believe that crocheting together makes for better crocheting.” 

Sweet Amigurumi Design · @sweetamigurumidesign

“My name is Femke Vindevogel, a Flemish amigurumi designer and writer. I inherited my passion for crochet from my grandmother, who still crochets at the age of 90. In April 2024, I published my first amigurumi book, ‘Peter Panda and Pals,’ and it has already been translated into several languages. I love Scandinavian color palettes and naughty cats, and I combine both in my projects full of charm.” 

Happy Hooked · @happy.hooked

“My love for crochet started when I became an aunt in 2012 and, since then, I’ve made endless amigurumis, always looking for that extra soft touch. When I discovered Katia Bambi, I knew I’d found the perfect yarn for my designs. Now, I am excited to share the Diego Duck amigurumi pattern, made with Katia Big Bambi, specially designed for Amigurumi ❤️ Chenille.” 

Make it plush, use chenille 

With Katia Bambi, Big Bambi and Velvet Mini,, each project turns into a soft and charming plush toy. As well as offering pretty colors and a velvety texture, these chenille yarns bring durability to your amigurumis and flow to your crochet, making each stitch easier and more fun

Release your creativity, create with your hands!
