Advance Praise

"Advanced knitters looking for a new challenge will find one in Crowther’s beautiful designs, and children will love the whimsical results."--Publishers Weekly

"While there are many knitting patterns available for stuffed animals, there are fewer that include clothing for those animals, and even fewer with clothing that can be fully removed and used on other softies. Crowther does all of the above with the 13 intermediate-level patterns for animals included here, ranging from those commonly kept as family pets to farm animals and woodland critters."--Booklist

Featured Reviews

A very attractively presented book that includes 13 knitting patterns for cuddly animals. Each animal is 40 cm (16inches) tall and they all share the same basic body, arms and legs. Each animal has its own wardrobe, but these can easily be mixed and matched.
The patterns are clearly set out, with plenty of photos illustrating the techniques used. There is a lovely attention to detail in all the patterns, especially the wonderful clothes and shoes. Techniques include lace, cables and intarsia. As such, I would say that the patterns are suitable for advanced beginners who are confident with written patterns.
This is a delightful book that can't help but appeal.

A beautifully presented book of animal friends to knit. They all share the same basic body shape so once you have mastered one the others should be quick to finish. Each animal has his or her own personality and wardrobe, but these can be mixed and matched to suit the recipient. These adorable animals look as much fun to knit as they will be to play with!

Beautiful designed book, well laid out and perfectly executed
The projects are very clear and everything you need to know is there. Lovely finished animals that can make great gifts. It isn’t necessarily a book for beginners but it isn’t so advanced that a confident beginner couldn’t pick up.
A lovely book for any knitter

These animal patterns are sure to be loved by kids of all ages. Adorable clothing and shoes, I cannot wait to get to work on them all. Patterns are extremely detailed with many pictures included, guiding our stitches exactly so finished projects will be flawless. All of these animals could be made again and again in varying colors. Would make amazing baby shower gifts.
