Mini Crocheted Creatures

The interest in Japanese amigurumi is explored in miniature in this charming new title by Laura Bergstrom.

Gorgeous and cute, these projects may be small but they are bursting with personality, making perfect gifts for friends and family. These tiny creatures can be used in a variety of imaginative ways – as key rings, jewellery accessories or just displayed as adorable trinkets in their own right.

All the basic crochet techniques you will need are clearly explained along with step-by-step illustrations making this book perfect for beginners upwards. Anyone unsure about working in this scale can simply practise with larger hooks and thicker yarn – the patterns are exactly the same.

The animals are divided into six categories: farm, small, woodland, pet, sea and zoo so there is something for everyone from an elephant or a whale down to a squirrel, piglet, bunny and even a ladybird or butterfly!
