Featuring a collection of what must be the cutest crocheted toys the world has ever seen, Edward’s Menagerie inspired those of us who’d never crocheted before to learn how just so we could make the sweet creatures in this book. Happily, all you need to know to make almost any of these adorable animals—including an aardvark, an alpaca, a Blue Russian cat, an elephant, and a bat—are chain, slip, and double crochet stitches, so if you’re new to crochet you won’t have to learn anything too complicated. You’ll be able to change your hook and yarn to create four different sizes from about 4.5" when seated up to 13.5".
