 Too Cute Kyuuto: Amigurumi March 12, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book has great illustrations, I am the type of person who loves to see pictures - this one has plenty which will give you the inspiration to keep crocheting these cute little characters. You will be inspired to create your own versions of what is listed in the book,the ideas are endless. The projects are not time consuming, materails are easily acquired and the end result is complete satisfaction. I have had the book for one week and made four animals so far.
cute and easy to follow February 24, 2008

The animals in this book are very stylish and varied. There are 19 patterns including frogs, seals, ducks, lions, and butterflies. The patterns are written graphically which is very easy to follow and there is a page demonstrating how to use them - if you are unsure. The reason this did not get 5 stars is that I have to guess how many chains go in the foundation row, and there seems to be a couple of omissions in one of the patterns. But that does not really detract from the excellent design and cuteness.
 cute book, with issues February 22, 2008

I was a little iritated when the first pattern in it (the cover pattern) didn't tell you how many rows to crochet for the legs or arms of the bears, very odd... and then my bears have all turned out huge. i wish it was more specific about the yarn.. I used the smallest clover ergo hook i could get, 2.5mm and some Red Heart Super Saver. I saw someone else make one of these bears with SPORT weight yarn and it turned out the right size.. I guess I'll have to try sport weight but I thought "medium" was worsted!
Great for all crocheters February 15, 2008

Even though it isn't written in they way most English patterns are it is still very easy to follow, more so than the English way of writing crochet patterns. There are a few places where the pattern is uncompleted, but the author encourages each person to make it their own. So you can make the arm and leg lengths how you want them. Everyone who's seen the finished products loves it and wants one.
 incomplete patterns but good inspiration February 8, 2008

i really like the designs, presentation and pictures in this book. the reason that i'm giving it only 2 stars is that some of the instructions on the patterns are incomplete. like the first pattern on page 50/51. when you get to the arms and legs, the instructions only indicate 3 rows. you can tell from the pictures that there are more than 3 rows, and it probably won't be too hard to figure it out, but my feeling is that after paying for a pattern book, i shouldn't have to decipher incomplete instructions. (especially on the first pattern listed) the missing instructions are disappointing, but it is still a book with cute ideas and at least can be used for inspiration.
