Crocheting Amigurumi Animals for Beginners

Joanna Kienmeyer is an Amigurumi Designer based in Austria. She started knitting and crocheting inspired by her partner’s family and made her first amigurumi when her daughter was born. She later began posting her creations on Instagram and was asked by some of her favorite designers to test patterns.

A year later, Joanna released the first pattern of her own, which has gone on to become her most popular. As well as selling both her amigurumi creations and patterns online, she continues to share her designs with over 60K followers on Instagram and works as a special needs teacher.
