One Hour Amigurumi Review

A Bit About the Author

Melanie Morita-Hu is the owner of Knot Too Shabby Crochet, and author of One Hour Amigurumi as well as Hooked on Amigurumi! From her About Page:

“Melanie Morita-Hu is the author of Hooked on Amigurumi, One-Hour Amigurumi, and founder of Knot too Shabby Crochet, a popular Instagram account and Etsy shop. She began selling amigurumi plushies in 2016, and she has also sold her work at a number of events and festivals.

When Melanie’s not crocheting, she’s working full-time as a civil engineer, or she’s helping her husband build out their urban homestead, which has been affectionately dubbed the Hu Zoo. Together they garden, tend to their animals, renovate their home and yard, and generally just love working with their hands!”

FORTY ADORABLE PATTERNS

One Hour Amigurumi features easy-level instructions, and tons of step-by-step photos to help you along the way. On page 146, there is a list of each pattern divided by skill levels. Beginners should start with Level 1, and work their way up from there. So crocheters of every skill level can dive right in and get started!

The Basics section includes both the info that true beginners need (yarn, hooks, how to sc, etc.) and some great tips specifically for amigurumi.

There are a bunch of cute little creatures, but I love the Seasonal section! From New Year’s Champagne, to hearts, bunnies, pumpkins, and snowmen, there are so many gift and ornament possibilities!

In addition to all the adorable patterns, there is a fantastic index in the back that lets you find exactly what you’re looking for fast. Not only the actual patterns, but shapes and techniques are listed, making this book even more useful!

And you get to try one for free!

On November 9th, 2022, I’ll be sharing a sample pattern from the book, for Tina the Turnip! CLICK HERE to give it a try! It will be reprinted with permission from One Hour Amigurumi by Melanie Morita-Hu, Page Street Publishing, Co. 2022. Stay tuned!
