Trade ReviewThese adorable, gentle-looking creatures are sure to bring a smile to anyone's face! From a cosy cat cushion to Jacques, "a most unusual goat", these 16 sweet amigurumi are full of personality and just asking to be cuddled. There's an extra treat, too - the designs are all finished off with some delicate Liberty Tana Lawn fabric for some simple sophistication, from a quirky hair bow to fun bird wings or a stylish dress. We especially love the colourful Mikki the Hedgehog, with individually made "spikes" in a range of pretty shades.

The 16 cute amigurumi animals range from an easy cat cushion to a slightly more challenging hedgehog. Each animal is beautifully photographed and there is an introduction to crochet at the front of the book, so even confident beginners can tackle the patterns. UK crochet terminology is used throughout, with conversions for US readers, and templates are provided for the fabric additions. I'm looking forward to crocheting my way through the book!
