Synopsis
Cuddly Crochet Critters introduces 26 soft, squishy, pillow-like creatures that make easy projects for beginners and ideal stuffed animals for children and adults of all ages. Fashioned from super-bulky, machine-washable, chenille-style yarn, these appealing patterns can be completed in just a few hours. These large critters (about 13" long x 9" wide x 7" tall) make great pillows for a child's nap time, homey accessories for a dorm room, or comfy companions for travel. Crafters will enjoy making and snuggling these critters, a charming menagerie featuring a dragon, owl, bear, unicorn, monkey, panda, and other lovable animals.
Based on the popular Japanese "tsum tsum" style, each project starts with a standard body shape and requires just some basic crochet stitches using a size M/N hook. They're easy to customize with the addition of ears, legs, tails, wings, and muzzles, and they can be made safe for children 3 and under. These cuddly critters make greats gifts, too
