Mini Pets - Snails, Bugs and Frogs Amigurumi

With the patterns in this set you can crochet a selection of mini creatures – spiders, beetles, frogs and snails – along with a toadstool, hollow log and grass mat for them to play on.

These creatures are very small, between 1.5” and 2.5” long, and they’re quick to make, with minimal sewing required. They’re great for party favours or other little presents, or to sell at school or church fairs. You can easily turn them into keychains, brooches, or fridge magnets.

Use double knitting weight yarn. Small amounts of yarn for each creature. Approx 50g green yarn for grass play mat. Approx 10g red yarn for toadstool. Approx 10g white/off-white yarn for toadstool. Approx 10g each of two different brown yarns for hollow log.

Black yarn for some eyes and mouths, or other contrasting yarn as described in the patterns.

The patterns are written using US crochet terms, and the list of abbreviations includes the UK alternatives.
