Crocheted or knitted stuffed toy

amigurumi

Amigurumi can be knitted, though they are usually crocheted out of yarn or thread, using the basic techniques of crochet (such as single crochet stitch, double crochet, and invisible decrease).
Amigurumi can be worked as one piece or, more usually, in sections which are sewed or crocheted together. Learn more on Wikipedia
