TOFT - Edwards Menagerie
Now
down to the instructions. It took me a while to sort these all out. It’s not a
case of you pick up the book and go buts once you figure out its simple and
quick. Each animal has the same start so that part of the crochet pattern is at
the front of the book then you have to check where you go off pattern to make
each animal its own individual charm. Harry wanted me to start with Blake the
Orang-utan but I have to say I wasn’t brave enough for a first attempt and
concentrated on Bridget the Elephant.
It’s
a perfect little book to keep on the sofa and dip in and out of in the
evenings. I did find you couldn’t crochet away while happily watching tv as you
do have to concentrate on what you’re doing and making sure you haven’t made
the hips to big (trust me you don’t want to find this out when you get further
up and have to unravel like I did!) but gosh the finished results are
definitely worth it. The book is out in paperback which makes it perfect for
browsing through and also as a perfect gift although you might want to buy this
for yourself and choose an animal to crochet as a gift. I have plans for all of
them!
