The 'right' side corresponds to the side where the stitches look like 'V's. This will be referred to as the 'V' side. !

The 'wrong' side corresponds to the side where the stitches look like ''s. This will be referred to as the '' side.

This amigurumi is made 'V' side out. This means that the nished body part must be

turned inside out before stufng.

S T I T C H :

ScDec refers to a Single Crochet Decrease. To make this stitch virtually invisible when

the amigurumi is 'V' side out, follow this well known method of only using the front loop:

Insert crochet hook into front loop of next stitch, yarn over and pull through.

Keep the loop on the hook.

Insert crochet hook into front loop of next stitch, yarn over and pull through.

There should be 3 loops on the hook. Yarn over and pull through all three loops on the hook.
