FAQs
Here are the questions that people usually ask me:
Q1. What type of yarn and crochet hook size do you use to make your amigurumi plushies?
I use acrylic DK (double knit) yarn, because it's the cheapest and easiest yarn type to get. As for crochet hook sizes, it depends what project I work on. It ranges between 2.50mm and 4.00mm. The most simple plushies require the largest size, whilst I use the smallest size for the more complicated ones, because of its many details.
Q2. Do you take custom orders?
Not exactly. I used to take custom orders on Etsy, before starting up my own website in October 2021. Now I take requests from other people by making what they would like and uploading them as part of my new stock that comes every month.
Q3. How often do you upload your new stock?
I upload my new stock of products once a month. They include amigurumi plushies, amigurumi patterns and sometimes, cushion covers of my graphic designs. However, if I do miss a month, it may be because I'm busy making physical orders and don't have enough new products to upload.
Q4. How often do you restock plushies that have previously been sold out?
I restock these particular plushies every couple of months. Remember, they're made to order, and I would like to make different kinds of plushies to send off, instead of making the same plushie, one after another.
Q5. How do I know when your new stock is going to be uploaded?
I let people know via social media that I plan to upload my new stock a week before the deadline. On the day before, I remind them again, so that they won't miss out.
Q6. Do you sell your plushies ready made?
No, they're always made to order. The reason for this is because, making plushies before selling them would cause up a significant amount of storage, and they might not even be sold for a long time. Another reason is that I would not have enough time to work on new projects for my next batch. This is why physical orders take days, or weeks to make before dispatching them and working on the next order.
Q7. How many of the same plushies do you stock?
The simpler plushies are to be made to order 5 times, whilst the more complicated ones are made no more than 3 times. I've chosen this particular amount, otherwise I would be stressing over making the same products over and over again.
