I Never Thought I Could Make A Pig!!

But I did! And a bunny! I don't consider myself a great knitter by any means, but the instructions were very easy to follow and my pig actually looked like a pig. Same with the bunny. No, it didn't look like a pig. But you could actually tell what they were! What a fun book! And I felt such a sense of accomplishment when they were completed. All the patterns look fun to make. And each pattern recommends the type and color of yarn to use. I can't wait to start my next project. Those penguins look awfully cute.

FUN - FUN - FUN !

Patterns were easy to follow and quick to put together. Cute to make for my Grandchildren. Nice gifts for any occasion. Baby shower, birth, birthday, Christmas or to make a little one smile.

My daughter loved the book. She has started making her second item. The animals are very cute.

Best little stuffed animal book ever

I am a creative knitter, I love these patterns. I don't worry about using the yarn the author used, I pick a yarn of the same gauge that I like and go for it. My oopsy daisy dolls are turning out wonderful (one pink and one blue) and the yarn I purchased for the little pig is going to be adorable. When you knit you should put yourself into the design not just copy the author. Go for it and have fun, with these little animals you can.
