Amigurumi & Nemo

Amigurumi is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals. The word is derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll. I first crocheted an Easter bunny at Easter time for Owen, and then I made an elephant. Owen loves them!

There are many patterns on the Lion Brand yarn website!

Owen loves Nemo and has taken to putting on his safety goggles from his work bench and pretending that he is the scuba diver in the movie.

Today at Home Depot we bought some Nemo wall stickers for Owen's room.

Owen loves the Nemo blanket that Grandma made for him. It is very soft and warm, and perfect for naps on the couch!
