Inspired by the shenanigans of Beatrix Potter characters as a child, author Emma Varnam felt moved to create her own fictional woodland of cute critters with quirky names and accessories to boot! Emma likes to make items that will bring joy and a smile and making toys for children is her passion. This charming book is the perfect mix of whimsical design with fun accessible crochet techniques for you to learn. Designed with variety in mind, accessories in this book will fit each of the animals, making it easy to play dress-up and give your toys new looks and stories!

Create your own special friends for the kids and even adults to to bring some joy and nostalgia into their home! Matt Mole, Freda Fox and Matilda Mouse are just a few of the cheeky chaps you'll find on the pages of this beautifully photographed book. With pictures galore and easy-to-follow guidelines, these projects are easy to whip up, with additional tips and hints from Emma.

Towards the back of the book, you will find a handy step-by-step guide to selecting hooks, stuffing projects and the basic stitches with an illustrated guide - making this the perfect book for beginners to get stuck in.  My favourite character has to be Suzie Squirrel, this adorable project features a frill dress and a matching beret, I love the idea of a mischievous critter who is also a fashionista!
