Publisher Comments:

An irresistible Japanese craft book full of photos, illustrations, and 20 crochet patterns to make adorably understated long-legged stuffed animals.

There are even a few accessories to make.

  • A black rabbit with white spots, and a white rabbit with black spots—as well as a pattern for their tiny rabbit shoes!
  • A trio of cuddly bouclé poodles
  • A fully accessorized bear, equipped with shoes, a matching hat and scarf, and even a little purse
  • A lanky hen and her baby chicks
  • A long-limbed piglet
