Why make a cone?
Cones and tapering shapes are structural essentials in amigurumi design. By choosing how your tip starts and expanding outward, cones allow you to build precise, rigid angles for characters, clothing, and botanical models.

What are Yarn Weights?
US System uses numbers (0-7) and descriptive terms. Standard amigurumi usually relies on DK or Worsted weight yarn paired with a smaller hook to keep stitches tight.
Amigurumi Yarn & Hook Guide
Drop 1 to 3 hook sizes smaller than your yarn label recommends to keep the fabric dense and prevent stuffing from showing through.
Stuffing Types Guide
Standard polyester fiberfill (Poly-Fil) works best for cones, ensuring smooth curves without bulging.
