Description
10 utterly adorable amigurumi animals to brighten your day, from popular designer Femke Vindevogel!
Bring Kate Koala and her BFFs - Polly Penguin, Beatrice Bunny and Magnus Moose - to life, with these simple crochet patterns perfect for confident beginners.
Kate Koala loves to surf the waves come rain or shine, Puck Pug is a snoozy pup who practises yoga in his onesie, and Polly Penguin has a complete obsession with caramel sprinkle frappes - pick your favourite or create the whole set!
Whether you are at adventurous beginner or intermediate level, there is a playful amigurumi project waiting for you, complete with all the necessary templates and with all the key techniques clearly explained.
The 10 stash-busting projects measure between 15cm (6in) and 28cm (11in) high (but have personalities much bigger!)
Have fun adding pops of colour to your creations with smart, customizable accessories: a cute fish sweater and fish bag for Cato Cat, a comfy travel pillow for Puck Pug and noise-cancelling headphones for Shane Sharky.
The projects are perfect to keep and treasure, or to gift to someone you love.
