Melissa and Clarissa are two twin sisters - so much alike, yet so different in temperament and personalities. Melissa is intelligent, communicative, full of initiative and vibrant. Clarissa is rather quiet, timid and sensitive, and artistic in nature. As you have probably already guessed, Melissa is an extravert, Clarissa an introvert. Yet despite being so different - or maybe precisely because of that - they get on very well and love each other to bits.

This amigurumi pattern is written using American terminology. Most of it is worked in continuous rounds (using a stitch marker). The white top is worked in rows using the crossed double crochet stitch.

Gauge is not important for this project.
