Animal Friends with Rice Balls! Amigurumi Making with happysmile
Japanese amigurumi artist and participating artist in our World Amigurumi Exhibition, happysmile, will be visiting New York to teach her own amigurumi class! Join us this December 12th for a fun amigurumi group workshop. As a guest instructor, happysmile will teach our students how to make small animal amigurumi holding rice balls. Students will get to choose their yarn and make animals such as bears, rabbits, cats, birds, and more!
Happysmile hopes to convey and express Japanese culture to people across the world and plans to do so here in New York. She decided to have the amigurumi hold rice balls to represent Japanese culture (and food!) In addition, happysmile hopes that participants will interact with one another through crocheting animals and also grow closer to Japan.
Participants will need to bring the items below:
- a pair of scissors
- a crochet hook (US size D-3 (3.25 mm) or Japan size 5/0)
- a yarn needle (if you cannot bring a needle, we will provide one for you but please let us know by email in advance!)
All other materials will be provided.
No crochet experience is needed! Anyone, beginners or advanced learners are welcome to the event! Moreover, the cute amigurumi you make will be yours to take back home!
