Everything you need is inside the kit to make the Elephant and the Octopus. I would like to make the Octopus for my granddaughter who will love it. You get all the instructions you need, including the UK and US crochet terms. This would make a great gift.

The lovely people at Search Press recently gifted The Mini Amigurumi Animals Kit by Sarah Abbondio to my kids crochet club and Lexie and Lillia had so much fun making an octopus and elephant using it! We found the patterns really easy to follow - even for the young ones - and Lillia even made her elephant its own little scarf as an added extra! You can’t find the scarf yarn in the kit but you will find everything else you need to make the animals inside, which would make it a great Christmas gift for a crocheter. Plus, now we have the booklet, we can pass it around the class at The Wool Gallery St Neots so everyone can have a go at making these critters using our colourful yarn stash, so expect some multicoloured animals coming out of the sessions soon!
