In this video I’m talking through safety eyes—because if you’ve ever hit that moment in an amigurumi where the eye placement feels “off,” you’re not alone. I go over the practical stuff that makes safety eyes feel less scary: picking a size that matches your yarn and stitch tightness, testing placement before you commit, and making sure you’re installing them at the right stage of the project so you’re not fighting stuffing later. I also touch on how I think about symmetry (and why I always double-check before snapping the backs on), because once those washers are on… whew, they’re ON. I also point you toward my stingray video for a real example of where the eyes land on a specific shape, and I share where you can find my patterns and makes (Ravelry/Etsy). If you’re making items for little ones, I’m also real about safety: “safety eyes” aren’t automatically baby-safe, so I chat about when I personally choose embroidery instead. Consider this your quick confidence boost before your next pair of eyes stares into your soul—Kiwi included.
