Make Your Own Crochet Animals

Make Your Own Crochet Animals: Create Your Own Unique Animals and Patterns

Author: Karolina Knapek

The aim of this book is to bring the age-old art of crotchet into the 21st century. Gone are the days where all it was good for was creating placemats and jumpers for your teapots.

Aimed at the intermediate crocheter, this book assumes you are already proficient in the basics and are looking to increase your creative output through the use of interesting color and design. With an insight into ten bespoke patterns that can be easily followed, starting with a cute raccoon and progressing to the more advanced sloth.

The aim is to introduce you to new ways of approaching crotchet; you will be able to confidently create your own unique animals and patterns upon completion of the book. Each animal created teaches a new technique, from establishing a simple ball; we progress through more elaborate designs with each unique pattern learning new skills and new ideas.

Annotated through out with pictures, and scattered with top tips, with links to videos of each stage you can feel confidant that the resources are here to crotchet out of a hole. Easily adaptable, these designs will give hints about new aesthetics for seasonal versions as well as more interesting use of colors to create exciting pieces and inspire a new generation of crochetiers.

Having moved to England in 2006, seeking a new creative community, Karolina Knapek now resides in East London with her lovely husband and bouncing baby boy. Here she has found a vibrant hub of inspiration powered by resourcefulness and talent. From octopi to sloths, hippos to cacti, she hopes to inspire you to design from scratch, no more tea cosies and doilies.
