If you've ever picked up a skein of variegated yarn and thought, "This is so pretty... but what amigurumi would I even make with it?", you're not alone.

If you're new to crochet, reading a crochet pattern for the first time can feel a bit intimidating. All those abbreviations, numbers, brackets, repeats... It looks almost like a secret code.
I remember feeling the exact same way when I first started crocheting. But once you understand how patterns are structured, everything clicks into place, and suddenly it all makes sense.

Crocheting has been a cherished part of my life for the last 10 years. It's an awesome hobby that keeps my mind calm and helps me unleash my creativity. As a passionate crocheter myself, I can't help but get excited about turning a simple ball of yarn into something beautiful.
The best part about crocheting as a hobby is that it doesn't have to break the bank. All you really need is some yarn and a hook. And with some resourcefulness, you'll find a wealth of free crochet patterns right at your fingertips.
I love crocheting continuous rounds when I crochet amigurumi so that there is no visible seam. However, because there's no seam, it's hard to know where the start of the round is. This is where the running stitch marker comes in handy.
You can use regular stitch markers when crocheting in spiraled rounds and move them each time you start a new round, but you would only be keeping track of the beginning of the current round. If you notice a mistake a few rounds back and need to take it apart, you could easily lose your place.
