This is my version of a Japanese Amigurumi design that I HAD to make, but couldn't translate.
Amigurumi is all crocheted in the round, which is how I do many of my designs.
I used a brushed acrylic for the white and regular worsted for the body, and this makes a difference. The brushed is bulkier and so requires fewer rounds. If you want to do it all in worsted, you might have to adjust this pattern.
