My first amigurumi!

I made my first amigurumi! I figured out the magic loop to begin amigurumi and from there it's easy when you only need to decrease and/or increase single stitches. I got my design from a cute book which I've got for my birthday from two friends of mine. This is the book that I have:

The thingy that I made is a cup of cappuccino with an adorable face! The only thing is that I learned that the stitches are closer together when I put more tension on the thread. So... the bottom of the cup is bigger then the top part... But hey, I'm still learning. And I'm learning still, because I'm making another creature from this book, which is a cactus in a pot :P I'm also proud that I started crochet. My grandmother, who died when I was eleven, used to croched. I loved her work! She had doilies and filet crochet against the window of the backdoor. Just gorgeous! I'm hoping to figure out how to start a filet crochet and how to make a cute edge around it, I'll be amazed!! I wish I could make the things that my grandmother onse made and one day I will be able to do so. I anyone knows a good video tutorial or a tutorial with pictures, please let me know :D
