Knit Me, Dress Me, Love Me : Cute Knitted Animals and Their Mini-Me Toys, with Keepsake Outfits to Knit and Sew by Sue Stratford (2017, Trade Paperback)

This charming book is all about cute, easy knits with a vintage feel. It includes knitting patterns for six different animal toys--a rabbit, a kitten, a mouse, a puppy, a panda and a monkey, each approx. 8 inches (20cm) high, and all easy and quick to knit. Each will be accompanied by a mini knitted version of itself that can be stored away in the little shoulder bag or backpack that each toy carries. There is also a wide range of patterns for the bags and outfits in which to dress the knitted toys. These will be a variety of knitted and simple hand-sewn garments, all one size, and all designed to fit every animal. The hand-sewn clothes are very simple and do not require a sewing machine. Careful instructions and full-size templates are provided, and there is a wide selection of knitted garments for those who do not want to sew. Outfits include pyjamas, outdoor clothes (coat, hat, scarf), summer dresses, party clothes and so on, with added accessories. Readers are encouraged to use up scraps of yarn and fabric they already have for the clothes, re-using materials from a favorite item that's long since been worn out or out grown to make a 'keepsake' toy that has special significance.

Knit yourself a menagerie of adorable little animals!
I have been knitting for several years now, and I have always been interested in making small knitted animals for gifts (and some for me, I'll admit that!) Many of the books out there were interesting, but there were only a couple of the patterns that really appealed to me. These books are not cheap and if the patterns are confusing or poorly designed, that ruins the whole experience. When I saw this book, I was immediately interested, because the designs went beyond the plain ol' teddy bear to include a mouse, bunny, monkey, kitten, puppy, panda bear...and each one has an adorable "mini me" sidekick. And that's not all! There are dozens of patterns for clothes, shoes, toys and other accessories for your newly-created menagerie. A word of advice: although the animals and most of the accessories are knitted, you should be fairly handy with a sewing needle for some of the mini clothing. The good news is that all the patterns are fairly simple, and come with clear instructions and a host of photos. This is definitely the best book I have come across for patterns of this type and I think knitters will have a lot of fun making these.Vollständige Rezension lesen
