Everyone will go wild for these gorgeous crocheted animal rugs. Adults and children alike will adore these beautiful rugs, which would make wonderful gifts and stylish additions to any home. * Simply Crochet magazine * The textile taxidermy trend is the gift that keeps on giving, and Vanessa Mooncies latest collection of crafted creatures is just as delightfully decorative and humorous as any of her earlier books. Its very hard to pick a favourite here as theyre all so adorable, but the Fox has a really cheeky look in his eye, the details on the Rhinos head are fascinating to look at, let alone to make, and the Giraffes long, patterned, maned neck just looks brilliant. * Knitting magazine * Let me just say that Vanessa is a genius! ... This book included beautiful photos of each rug ... It was amazing and I definitely recommend this book if you have the time and patience. * Sweetly Made Just for You blog * The patterns and the layout are whimsical and inspiring Overall, this is a great book for confident beginner crocheters, or more advanced crocheters looking for fun home decor projects. * Underground Crafter Craft Blog *
