Chunky Amigurumi Crochet: 35 Easy Patterns to Make - by Natalie Beard (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Crochet 35 SUPER-CUTE and cuddly CHUNKY AMIGURUMI CHARACTERS.

The designs include a sweet capybara, a pretty dragonfly, and a smiley sunshine and are all crocheted in SUPER-SOFT BULKY CHENILLE YARN.

Made in soft bulky yarn using the amigurumi technique-the Japanese art of crocheting 3D toys-these irresistible characters are super cuddly as well as being quick and satisfying to create. In the first chapter, Cute Woodland, you'll find a friendly fox, a pretty trio of flowers, and a happy cloud. Next, choose from a sweet ladybug, a colorful caterpillar, and a buzzing bee in the Un-creepy Crawlies chapter.

The Seasonal Squish chapter features characters that are perfect for marking occasions, from a Halloween ghost to a Valentine's heart and a cheerful Christmas tree. Finally, make unique projects including an exploding volcano, a butterfly, and an adorable tortoise in the Tropical Treasures chapter.

There is a guide to tools and materials, as well as a step-by-step techniques section. So pick up a crochet hook and make your own collection of cute characters to decorate your home or give as gorgeous gifts.
