Poly-fil is a high-quality stuffing material ideal for crafting and home decor. It offers great value for your money, and our 10-pound box has lasted for years. Perfect for pillows and stuffed animals, we will always recommend this brand for plushies.

What's the best trick for sewing your plushie body parts together? Knitting needles! Just stab them through the body parts to hold them in place while sewing. Never have misaligned heads and arms again!

If you are new to crocheting or knitting, we recommend starting with Red Heart Super Saver weight 4 yarn. You get a ton of bang for your buck, and a variety of colors, and the yarn is easy to work with as it doesn't split or shed. The best hook size for this yarn is a 3.5 or 4 mm hook, so don't forget to buy one! 

This crochet backpack combines style and functionality with multiple pockets for your laptop, textbooks, and crochet projects. The durable design includes a front pocket with dedicated spaces for your crochet hooks. We used this backpack all through college since we loved to crochet in class, and it's still holding up, 5 years later!
