Get ready to meet some incredibly cute critters! I'm certainly captivated by them! In fact, amigurumi—the Japanese art of crocheted dolls—continues to charm crocheters around the world with their small size and appealing features. That’s why Leisure Arts decided to reintroduce these adorable zoo animals in this how-to book A Zoo For You by Cindy Harris.
These little figures are so quick and fun to make, you may be tempted to crochet the entire collection for yourself, your friends, and all the youngsters you know. Projects include Monkey, Brown Bear, Hippo, Tiger, Rhino, Giraffe, Polar Bear, Zebra, Elephant, Alligator, and Lion.
I've already got requests from all of the eldest child's college friends who want an amigurumi to call their own!
