Here are 25 patterns for small-scale crocheted novelties to use as toys or mascots, or to attach to key rings, bags, and clothing. The book is divided into three themed chapters - Food, Sea Creatures, and Accessories - and while some of the items are suitable for crochet novices, others will challenge those with more experience. The patterns are easy to follow and include a helpful guide to tools, materials, and techniques. Crochet a turtle, squid, or starfish, or make some miniature food that looks good enough to eat. The projects take very little time, use very little yarn, and are perfect for gifting.
