How to knit a basic cute Kawaii amigurumi Animal body with just 2 tubes on a knitting machine. You can do this with a circular knitting machine, hand knitting loom and even hand knitting circular needles! Give this project a go!
The tubes are stitched together with simple stitches and filled with crafter's polyfill toy stuffing.
Anybody can make cute kawaii animals!

Stitch 5 rows out from both sides of the whip stitching to close the belly.

Use Poly Fill stuffing to fill in the legs/arms and body up the the edge of the closed tube.
Fold down to make the 2nd set of legs/arms stitch the underside of both arms/legs but stop before closing commpletely-
stuff the arms/legs and add a bit more to the body.
Finish closing the body.
Body is done.

Push cinched closed end of tube to the inside -

Use Poly Fill to stuff the inner head liner.
Use Drawstring to completely close the bottom of the head - stitch shut tightly.
