Kerry Lord

This is a very cute collection of crochet patterns for various animals. Kerry Lord gives a basic body form which serves as the starting point for most of her adorable animal creations. Adaptations to this pattern give character and a unique appearance to individual animals. There are also suggestions for how to create different sizes.
So far I have made the hippo and the polar bear patterns in a medium size. The hippo was absolutely perfect! The only change I made was to slightly narrow his arms as I found them to be a bit too wide. The polar bear was cute, but his face was a bit too pointy, he was a little mouse-like.
As far as the instructions are concerned, the details are a bit lacking for some of the steps. This could be especially confusing for beginners or people who are not familiar with the process of making crochet toys. There could be more explanation for assembly and fur creation in particular, these areas are somewhat lacking in description.
Overall, this is a nice collection of patterns, and as far as crochet pattern books go it is an excellent value.… (plus d'informations)
