Amigurumi is the Japanese art of crocheting or knitting small stuffed animals or creatures with a cute and adorable appearance. The word "amigurumi" is derived from the Japanese words "ami", meaning crocheted or knitted, and "nuigurumi", meaning stuffed doll. Amigurumi has gained immense popularity over the years and has become a favorite pastime for crafters around the world.

The art of amigurumi is not limited to any particular style or design. It allows for endless creativity and innovation, making it a fun and exciting craft. The creatures can be made in any size, shape, and color, and can be accessorized to suit individual preferences. 

Registration will open at 9 a.m. on Thursday, April 11.
