I'm not good at knitting.
But I used to make small Nuigurumi when I was younger. Usually Stuffed Toy means Nuigurumi for us.
Do you know the word "Nuigurumi"?
Amu = knit
Nuu = sew
gurumi comes from "kurumu" that means covering something.
I love your great works, Vreni. Cute Amigurumi!!!

but mine are crocheted, it's not the same as knitting... is it called the same?
now I know what amigurumi really means, I never knew that
and no, I didn't know the word "Nuigurumi" until yet.
I'm really happy that people like my work <3 Thanks to all <3

Get your Mum to show you Rabbits or you could look for an online tutor video.
I have taught crochet to ten year olds and some can do it and some just can't. The ones that can are the ones that just keep trying.
My advice it to get comfortable making chains first and then when you are ready to try a flat piece or a sphere just make it free form for now until you feel able to try a pattern.
(ha ha, this from the expert lol! NOT I think I have made three toys, and a few items of toy clothing. Mostly all I can do is wobbly phone socks :OD)

If we need to explain it exactly, saying like this :
crochet = kagi-bari ami (hook-needle)
knitting = bou-bari ami (stick-needle)

so amigurumi can mean both crocheted covered, or knitted covered...
Generally is is understood widely to be the crocheted version but now we know we can call any knitted toys amigurumi too!
