Way cute crocheted toys!

These little crocheted toys are sooo cute! They have whimsy in their design that makes them unique and adorable. There are so many possibilities to "dress" them, too - with all the fun patterns for clothes. This book is a winner if you like to create soft, stuffed animals with unique personalities!

Fun and pretty toys

These are some of the prettiest crocheted toys I've seen--very cute and clever. The directions are very clear and easy to follow, even for someone who's never tried crocheting a toy before (like me). So far, I've made the basic bear, the mermaid, and the foal. Of course, if any of these toys are to be created for use by babies, some modifications are necessary--no beads or other small, detachable items should be used. Also, no instructions are given for stiffening some slender areas of the toys, like the arms and legs of the dolls, and the legs of the foal. Still, a lovely book with plenty of good ideas. Not for beginners, but confident crafters will enjoy it.
