I have been really happy with this book. I am a fairly experienced crocheter. I found the instructions clear and easy to follow. My only complaint is not with the book at all, but with crocheting amigurumi in general...crocheting tight enough to create an item that can be stuffed is a bit hard on my hands and wrists.

I love some of the details on the dolls, like the little toes. And the hamburger was fun and easy and quick to whip up. This is definitely a fun book and one that will be staying on my bookshelf.… (lisätietoja)
