Knitted Animal Toys UK - Louise Crowther - knitting book

A curated collection of knitting patterns for animal dolls from best-selling author Louise Crowther. These patterns were previously published in Knitted Animal Friends and Knitted Wild Animal Friends and we have combined the toy patterns from both book, without the clothes and accessories, to create the ultimate knitted animal toy collection. The projects in this book are all made with Scheepjes Stonewashed.

Louise's knitting patterns are renowned for their attention to detail as well as being easy to follow. The animals are all approximately 40cm (16in) tall and their long arms, legs, and tails are perfect for little hands to hold. The animals all have the same standard-shaped bodies, arms and legs so once you've got the hang of the pattern you will easily be able to follow the instructions to adapt it to different types of animals by adding stripes, patches and contrasting paws. There are separate instructions for the head, tails, and different types of fur where necessary. All the instructions are included for how to make up each different animal with step-by-step instructions and photography. Instructions are also included for all the key techniques and stitches required to complete the animals
