Amigurumi: Woodland Animals (DVD + Streaming)

Melting hearts and lifting spirits everywhere, four adorable forest creatures are simple and stress-free to make when you take Stacey’s class, Amigurumi: Woodland Animals! Stacey, a pattern designer, author and guiding light behind the Fresh Stitches blog, specializes in crocheted toys in the Japanese style. In this class, Stacey shares her best tips for choosing yarns and hooks, marking and counting stitches, stuffing, assembling, and finishing with child-safe details. Even a rookie crocheter will enjoy making woodland animals in this class, while experienced crocheters will love the four included patterns – a sturdy bear, winsome deer, mischievous raccoon and non-angry bluebird.
