I've tried amigurumi before but just wasn't finishing them well. This class helped me tremendously and my grandkids are thrilled. I truly enjoy amigurumi now! Great instructor who truly enjoys her craft.

We are taught step by step instructions, in creating an Amigurumi. The tutor has explained everything, defining the unique shapes of all Animals differently e.g the legs of duck and frog. And the suits of all animals. She is explaining very comfortably,which is very easy to understand. It is a great class. Thanks for sharing all the ideas with us.

I love this class. The instructor is fantastic & I hope she does some more classes with different animals in the future. I completed Ms. Piggy in a couple of days & she turned out so cute! I'm a beginner & this class really gave me confidence I needed. So much fun!

I am very new to Amigurumi and thoroughly enjoying this online course. The instructor is very kind, patient, thoughtful and considerate. I love how much she is not just teaching the course methodically and just going along with the process. She actually loves constructing Amigurumi's and is deeply connected to the art of creating these delightful creatures. Her love for the craft really comes across well in each of her artful instructional designs. I cannot thank Annie's Craft for offering this class. It has really has dispelled all of my fears about making my first Amigurumi animal.

Love this class. Instructions are so easy to follow
The instructor has an easy voice to listen to. Have taken classes where the voice is not good would take more of her classes
