Putting a fresh twist on the classic granny square, Sarah-Jane Hicks has created 20 fun animal-themed designs, each including a textured 3D element such as shaggy fur, frilly tentacles, or horns, beaks and wings. Squares include pets, wild animals, sea creatures and mini beasts, with designs such as a penguin, turtle, lion, sloth, pig, ladybird, dog and cat. All squares use small quantities of yarn and can be incorporated into other projects or make the complete menagerie to create the blanket project in the book.
Cute, easy to make designs!
Nice range of designs, the instructions were very clear and simple to follow. I've only completed the bee so far but will continue to make more.
Nicely presented, easy to follow patterns and the book is a useful size for taking with you traveling, so you can crochet along the way! I've used cotton so far although I'm switching to acrylic for the rest for softness.
