The critters were cute, but the size is not something I would make. It uses tiny hooks and crochet threads or DMC Floss.

Crocheting miniature animation and making terrarium with them.

Perfect for creating fairy castles and gardens, all the instructions for making miniatures. Probably the best instructions I have ever seen for how to do each crochet stitch needed, with excellent step by step photos. Well worth the purchase price, especially since directions are given for making the same creations as larger toy sized pieces.

There were a lot of cute amigurumi "critters" noted in this book but none that were especially new to me. I did, however, enjoy reading about how to make a terrarium with tiny amigurumi creatures, trees and little items to put in it. That is something that I'll keep in the back of my mind for those times when I have no other crocheting to do. OH BROTHER!!! But it was a good book and I did learn a few newer techniques or ones that I hadn't done before so that is always a good thing.

From the first moment I saw these little critters I fell in love. Small, like uber tiny, they wormed their way into my heart. Easy instructions that left no question in my mind whatsoever, cute pics, small projects perfect for learning and an assortment of critters to warm your heart this book is perfect for anyone who loves to crochet. Even if you are just learning amigurumi, you can do these designs. One tiny hook. A couple of DMC floss pieces and you can rock this book. Christmas may never be the same.

Did I mention the terrariums? OMG. They are the cutest things since sliced bread. The tiny shrubs, flowers and plants are so adorable.

If you wanted, you could totally make these in a larger yarn. You would just have to play with sizing, but the smallness is what makes them super cute. Erin Clark has outdone herself with this book and I can't wait to see more like this...maybe food art...I want cupcakes...lol.

***This book was given to me by the publisher for a fair and honest review.

4.5/5
