Watch on YouTube:
Tools and Materials needed:
-
completed Amigurumi which needs to be closed (finished off)
-
needle suitable for the yarn type the Amigurumi was made with
-
scissors
STEP 1: prepare the Amigurumi that needs to be closed (with last row/round to have 12 stitches or less - it can have more, but less stitches gives better final result):
-
cut off yarn leaving sewing tail
-
insert sewing tail into the needle
STEP 2: insert the needle into next 2 FLOs (front loops only) and pull tightly – repeat till all front loops are finished off
STEP 3: once all front loops only are finished off, remaining stitches will look like posts - just insert the needle under next two posts and pull tightly - repeat till the end
STEP 4: to finish, insert needle into the center of the newly closed hole, weave in the yarn tail and in the end, using scissors, cut off remaining thread
Amigurumi is now closed (finished off)
