About
Nuigurumis (Japanese for 'stuffed toy' or 'plush toy') are merchandise pieces produced for media such as games and animes. They are very popular in Japan and are usually placed in crane machines. When collected, they can be used as charms, decorations or, simply for display. Sometimes collectors go the extra mile and create accessories and clothes for them.
Process
The clothes are made up of mostly single stitches while the band around the hat is made up of half-double crotchets. The patterns are custom made by me. The ears are stuffed with stuffing before being sewn on with a crotcheting needle. They are gone over with a regular crotcheting pin to reinforce the structural integrity. All other accessories are sewn on.
