Crochet Book #3: Kreasi Binatang untuk Souvenir


Bored with the usual crochet craft I try to find some other things that I can make from crocheting. From my trip to the book store I found this book, it's "Kreasi Binatang untuk Souvenir" by Arie Alhabsyi. It's filled with small crochet animal that is usually called Amigurumi. Amigurumi is a Japanese terms for this dolls, it is derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll so amigurumi means crocheted or knitted stuffed dolls.

There are 16 kinds of animals and insects in this book, you can make it into a phone strap, fridge cozy, brooch and many more. The book also contain some basic crocheting and explanation about crochet symbols and terms. The patterns for the animals are explains in symbol pictures and step by step instruction using crochet stitch terms.
