All parts are knitted flat and sewn up at the end. No circular knitting is required. The legs, body, and head are all knitted together, while the remaining parts are crafted individually. For the flower stem, use lightweight wire wrapped with yarn. Attach mushroom-shaped amigurumi eye beads to the head or opt for embroidery if desired.
The body can be made with double-knit (8-ply) weight yarn. I recommend using the same needle (size 3mm) and using a slightly larger needle to work the wings.
