Crochet fantastic animal-themed blankets, pillows and more with
this colorful collection of crochet animal blocks. Using simple
crochet intarsia and applique techniques you can stitch one block
for a pillow front, book bag or toy bag, join four for a lap throw,
nine for a child's blanket or sixteen for an adult blanket. Mix and
match colors to create fun single animal-themed blankets, or mix
them up for quirky multi-animal designs. There are so many
variations the only limit is your imagination. Ira Rott's
bestselling books Crochet Animal Rugs and Crochet Animal Slippers
have proven her to be a first-rate designer - and this new
collection will allow you to pair your favourite rugs and slippers
with matching blankets too! The book features 16 main animal block
designs for a Panda, Cat, Dog, Fox, Raccoon, Penguin, Pig, Sheep,
Koala, Sloth, Lion, Hippo, Cow, Unicorn, Bunny, and Monkey - plus
additional ideas for using different parts of the patterns to
create some new animals such as a Bear (made using parts from the
Sloth, Bunny and Lion) and a Horse (made from Unicorn, Bunny and
Panda). Many of the designs feature 3D elements including ears,
hair, flowers, and bows, which give the blankets a lovely tactile
quality. The blocks can be pieces together and left with no border,
or instructions are included to add a Granny Square border or a
fancier lace shells border - making a huge range of possibilities
for different blanket designs. Featuring in-depth advice on all the
crochet techniques and making-up techniques, this comprehensive
guide is beginner friendly and so much fun.
