Following the international success of ‘Magical Amigurumi Toys’, designer lilleliis has dreamt up 15 brand-new animal toys. In her new book ‘Cuddly Amigurumi Toys’ she once again combines Japanese amigurumi techniques with the teddy bear tradition loved so much throughout Europe and her home country Estonia to create cuddly companions for babies, toddlers and school children.
Starry-eyed Sara the horse and Lars the little dragon will gladly accompany the little ones on their outings, and Klaus the bashful bunny will come along too. In the meanwhile, Teddy Theodore and Teele the elephant will be patiently waiting at home for their return. And there is much, much more: peer between the book covers to discover all of the dazzling amigurumi.
Whether you’ve just picked up this book or you’re looking for new inspiration, the soft animals in this book will definitely spark a lot of love and fun. With a couple of simple stitches and colorful yarn, you can start imagining your very own cuddly toys, inspired by and for the little adventurers in our lives.
All patterns contain detailed instructions and are accompanied by step-by-step pictures and explanations of all techniques used, so both beginners and advanced crocheters can easily get acquainted with her amigurumi companions. Immerse yourself in the wonderful world and marvelous magic of lilleliis.
