Product Description
Product Description
Amigurumi is the hot new crochet-knitting craze from Japan, which is taking the world by storm. Using the Japanese double ring technique, avid knitters are producing these quirky cuddly toys in their hundreds. The only rule is that they must be small, and they must be cute!!! With this gorgeous collection of amigurumi designs you can create a unique menagerie of lovable knitted animals, ideal as gifts for your friends and family. The book features the basic techniques for assembling your animal, step-by-step photographs and a projects section with 25 imaginative designs to try. The unique projects include: unbearably cute teddies, puppies and kittens, pandas and penguins, bats and things with wings, creepy crawlies and sea creatures. Anyone can master amigurumi, and there are no limits to what you can create. Grab some yarn and crochet hooks, get comfortable by the fire and start making your own little world. About the author Annie Obaachan is passionate about amigurumi and all things crochet. She graduated from Bunka Fashion College, Tokyo, in 2003. She has worked at several knitting companies and has contributed to many major craft books including Knitorama and Hookarama. Her first solo book was Amigurumi. Annie lives in Japan.

I chose this book as my first Amigurumi book. I loved the pictures of the animals and there were many I was interested in making. However, I agree with another reviewer who said that the patterns do not always match the photographed designs. I have made 4 of the designs. Only one of them was accurate. There were inaccuracies for the patterns of the penguin, the hamster and also for the puppy with the long floppy ears. It is a pity and it does put me off trying to make other designs in the book in case the patterns are not correct.

When this book arrived, I couldnt wait to see the wonderful designs within, and it didnt disapoint me.
They are sooooo cute, you will want to try them all!
Great instructions on how to make and assemble, although a little crochet knowledge needed overall.
This book had lovely descriptions and accompanying photo's
Very happy with this purchase, and would recommend!

Is there anyone who does not like Amigurumi? Even my son goes cool, real cute! If you have not discovered amigurumi yet, or if you are an avid fan - this is a great collection of crochet collectables for you. Instructions are clear - the japanese crochet charts look very confusing. Crochet know-how included. Quick to make, desirable and very cute. Twenty five great animal projects - you'll want them all. I love the monkey the best
