The craze for crocheting cute characters was born in Japan, and now everyone can discover its appeal. Japanese legends are full of animals and humans transforming into something bizarre, and this tradition has inspired the authors to create 12 weird and wonderful creatures to amuse and delight. The instructions are simple to follow and are accompanied by innovative, easy-to-read charts. AUTHORS: Josephine Wan and Lan-Anh Bui are the authors of GMC's hugely successful Amigurumi.
