The global pandemic stopped her from going anywhere, but now she is finally going to see her best friend Elina again, who lives in Turkey.

For those who are new to Ami-Along, here's how it works!

Is this a one-time only Ami-Along?
The Ami-Along is a monthly event! You can either become a member with the monthly subscription or participate in a single Ami-Along only at a slightly higher cost. Each Ami-Along will feature a new exclusive project by a different established amigurumi designer.

I'm rather new to amigurumi, can I do this?
We think everyone should be able to participate in the Ami-Along, which is why we choose patterns that are mid-level. The designer and your fellow crocheters are there to help you in the forum, so you'll have plenty of people who want to guide you through the process of creating this cute amigurumi.

How do I download the pattern?
After joining the Ami-Along, you will receive a confirmation email in the mailbox linked to your PayPal email address. This email will contain a direct download link as well as a link to the forum, where you can download the pattern PDF as well.

Will the pattern be available in other languages?
The pattern will only be available in US crochet terms.

Does the price include materials?
No, we do not supply materials for this Ami-Along.

Will it be a mystery CAL?
No, the full pattern will be available from the start, including pictures of the finished item and step-by-step pictures to guide you along the way.

How long will this Ami-Along be available?
This Ami-Along starts on the second Wednesday of the month (August 10) and will end on the second Monday of the month after (September 12). This means you have a full month to work on your amigurumi, so don't worry about joining a little later. The forum will remain available for 2 weeks after the closing date of the Ami-Along. If you've downloaded the pattern and saved it to your computer, you can of course continue crocheting at your own pace.

Can I share my progress on social media?
Sure you can! You can share your progress in the forum and on your own social media. There might even be a prize involved. ;) When posting on social media, you can use the hashtag #amialong, so we can find your post more easily.

Do I need to be active in the forum?
No, you're free to participate if you like, or simply browse posts of others, or ignore the forum altogether.

How can I win one of the amazing prizes?
During each Ami-Along, we organize various small contests, where either the Amigurumi.com team or the designer draws a winner (randomly or by choice). For each Ami-Along, there will be an amazing prize for the designer’s favorite. You’ll discover how to win one of the other prizes in the 'Win!' thread on the forum.

My English is not great, is that a problem?
Not at all! We welcome Ami-Alongers from all countries and languages. And a picture says more than a thousand words, so everyone is welcome.
