Hi! I am trying to make myself a Kirby, but don’t understand steps 14, 15 & 16… Is there any way of explaining these steps visually by any chance? I absolutely adore the look of your Kirby and am trying to make one as a gift for my niece’s birthday coming up on wednesday here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Those steps are for the rosy cheeks. Follow exactly what it says in the steps. You’re just changing yarn so that Kirby’s cheeks show up with a different dark pink color.

Hi,I seen this Kirby and thought I’d attempt to make this as I’m just starting amigurumi for projects this summer. I followed the pattern well I thought, but my kirby turned out much bigger. I’m wondering if it can be my yarn? its kind of thick. Yours just seems much thinner and taller, hmm
Any advice?
