Tiny crochet animals are cute, but the larger animals in this book are just the right size for hugs and cuddles. Worked with bulky yarn and larger hooks, these stuffed animals hook up fast, and all of the patterns are easy enough for even a beginner crocheter. Single crochet stitches form most of the pieces. Stitched or crocheted embellishments make each creature unique. Finished pieces range in size from approximately 16 to 30 inches. You'll love the new friends you crochet, from a soft, fluffy llama or sheep to a frisky puppy, platypus, dinosaur, teddy bear, raccoon, turtle, and more. Make a favorite animal for yourself or a young friend. Once you make one, you'll see how easy and fun they are to crochet, and you'll want to make all 20 supersized amigurumi! ER -
