Amigurumi Paperback – November 25, 2014

I borrowed this from my local library but had to get my own copy once I tried some out. Some of the instructions are wrong (like on the robot) but most things crochet up really quick. I make toys for my dog from this book. Cheaper and last longer than the ones at the store.

I took a chance on this book and it was well worth it. I am an international buyer, so English is not my first language but I could follow the instructions with no particular problems. I love almost all of the patterns and will certainly try to make as many as time permits. I also own Amigurumi World: Seriously Cute Crochet and if I had to choose, Amigurumi (Cozy) is my favorite. I already made the frog and bunny and got excellent feed back from my daughter and friends. I have not yet found any mistakes and the finished products I made were just like the ones in the book. I was inspired by the book and learned a few basic tricks while making toys, so now I am designing or changing patterns to my liking. I highly recommend this book to everyone who wants to get started on making amigurumi.

These are some of the cutest amigurumis I've seen. The little creatures all have so much personality. I want to make them all!!

I've made the cubcake, the baby bunny, the puppy, the panda, and now working on the tiger and chick. They are super adorable and are just the right size. They are easy to make, but there are some mistakes in the patterns. For example, this is for part of the chick:Round 1: Dc around. 10 stsRound 2: (2dc into each st. 20 sts)Rounds 3 - 6: Dc around. 10 stsFor part of the baby bunny, from 24 sts, it says to 2dc in next dc, dc in next 3 dc = 32 sts. My math says that's 30 sts, not 32 sts.I can usually catch it and either unravel the stitches or make adjustments, but it's definitely disappointing that they didn't take the time to proofread the patterns.Still, the photos are cute and the patterns seem to be arranged from easy to difficult. The book also uses UK crochet terms (double crochet = single crochet). I would still recommend it but would just warn others to watch out for mistakes in the patterns.

Well written patterns, totally cute projects, what's not to love! Have made several already, and making more for Christmas!!!

Very nice and detailed

Very easy to do.

My young cousins want all the animals. Easy to follow directions. They used Brittish terns for single and double, but they are explained
