Stuffed toys are one of the most popular items sold on ETSY (the hottest online crafter's market) . These items are a great way to make use of fabric scraps. Japanese artisan - Miyako Kanamori makes these lovelies seen on her oh-so-cute website http://nuiguroom.bananawani.org/index.html. When made out of yarn via crochet and knitting techniques,they are generally referred to as "amigurumi". Personally I craft more generic items like handphone or camera pouches and wallets as I cannot make out the instructions for animal shapes.
