Now you've got a solid foundation, it's time to get to work on your final project. Start with the body, before crocheting the arms, legs, and head. All that's left is to sew all the pieces together.
Next, explore how to create a range of different animals from the same base. Follow Bia's steps to transform your amigurumi into a bunny, and then a unicorn. Wrap up the course by taking a look at a few extra design options as well as some helpful tricks for finding inspiration.

Que fantástica professora! Sente o prazer e o profissionalismo, com truques simples e dicas importantíssimas que às vezes não pensamos. Só para dar um exemplo, o truque do anel mágico invertido, que funciona maravilhosamente. São muitos detalhes preciosos. Apostou na autonomia e na diversidade, fantástico curso. Bem-haja.
