TipIt’s recommended to use stitch markers while crocheting to avoid missing or adding extra stitches, helping you complete your project more smoothly.
Materials needed
- White yarn is used for the candle body, black yarn for the wick, and red, orange, and golden yellow yarn for the gradient of the flame.
- 3.5mm/3.75mm crochet hook.
- Yarn needle.
- Marker clip.
- Scissors.
- Polyfil fibre stuffing or leftover yarn scraps.
TipIf you want your candle amigurumi to be fluffier, you can opt for slightly thicker yarn, like DK weight yarn (Light 3) or thicker acrylic yarn. This will give your crocheted piece a fuller and rounder appearance.
