Now that the Gurumi Family kit has launched, we’ve added a video tutorial on how to work basic embroidery stitches (back stitch, satin stitch, and French knots) on your knitted fabric. You can use these stitches for much more than just the faces on amigurumi characters, though. For example, I recently finished knitting a sweater vest in WotA Persimmon Heather and I’m using scraps of WotA Kettle Dyed in Timber to add embroidery details around the neckline and at the back shoulder. <
