amigurumi using the wrong stitches (on the pink one)

amigurumi using thread instead of yarn, wrong

using tiny beads for eyes, strike three!

My first attempt at amigurumi was just one year ago.  I used crochet thread. Boy, did that look weird. lol (the yellow cupcake in photo 2). I did not have the appropriate supplies. After trying a thicker yarn and substituting a few other supplies I was still very dissatisfied with the results! Working with a cupcake pattern it looked nothing like the model! Lesson>>> Using the necessary supplies is necessary to obtain the best results for amigurumi. I'll keep moving forward anyway. ugh
