Welcome to my world of amigurumi designs. I have been crocheting and perfecting my skills since 2010. Now I am branching out and creating my own designs from my pixel art that I have made years ago but now in crochet form. Please come in, sit down with your favourite drink, and see what NTGC has to offer.

Hello I am April, the face behind Northern Town Girl Crochets. I'm a small town girl who loves to crochet and knit, and now design my own patterns. For the moment I am just an amigurumi artist but one day I hope to develop my skill to include garment makes. But for now I love amigurumi. I used to be a pixel artist now I am using my pixel designs as my inspiration to create crochet dolls. I love how amigurumi brings smiles not only to little children but to adults as well.
