Crochet Amigurumi for Every Occasion: 21 Easy Projects to Celebrate Life's Happy Moments (The Woobles Crochet) Hardcover – October 11, 2022

I have spent years trying to learn how to do a crocheted magic circle and I have never been able to do it correctly. Yet it was only 20 minutes with this book and I was holding a perfect magic circle and creating a Woobles body. The instructions are crystal clear with illustrative photos and a generous use of white space. The patterns refer to a page number to review a technique, so you don't have to flip around in the book. The patterns are cute, and while I will probably make a few of them, I am also inspired to make my own designs. This is a great book for beginning animigurumists.

I love woobles kits and was so excited to found out this book existed! Now I have a TON of wobbles patterns and I can stop only buying individual kits!!! (Don’t worry, I’ll still be addicted to the kits…) This book is gorgeous and contains QR codes to video tutorials if you need them, just like Woobles kits do. Great job on this, Wooble peeps!

This book is wonderful. So many adorable patterns for numerous occasions. Woobles are one of my favorite crochet kits. It is nice having a book with 21 projects at your disposal. I would recommend this book to anyone. Happy crocheting aka Woobling!

The media could not be loaded. Love it! I've already made a bee from this book, the dinosaur, and I drastically changed the pattern for the potpourri octopus to not have an open stomach for potpourri along with many other changes. I've made LOTS of woobles. I've bought a surplus of their different kits and made all of them I've bought. 10/10. Love my woobles

Definitely worth the money! This book taught my daughter how to crochet. Now she doesn't stop crocheting and comes up with things on her own.

Love that there are so many projects in the book, but the construction of it is not awesome. Many of the pages have text right up next to the spirals so it’s difficult to read, and the front cover broke at the spirals after I opened it a couple times.

The "Woobles" brand is designed to start out people who have never held a crochet hook before, or have limited experience. The designs are made to use simple elements that can be picked up by a beginner. The focus is that anyone can do it.The first section has really clear pictures and instructions on how to do different stitches and other finishing techniques, as well as how to read patterns- basically everything you need to know. If you are still struggling, they have a youtube with a ton of quick instructional videos. Amigurumi is a lot of variations on the same basic shapes, so once you are comfortable with them you can move on to other patterns. When starting out I would flip from the project I was working on back to the page showing how to do the stitch, so I could be sure I was doing each part right.Personally, I had learned some crochet from my grandmother, but just some basics for a flat blanket. And I learned I was doing some things wrong. This book made me comfortable crocheting in the round and stitching pieces together.The star was one of my favorite patterns starting out. It's a flat pattern with a lot of increases and decreases (it's 2 stars sewn together in a sandwich), so if you're not comfortable with something round start there and just pay close attention to each row. It still starts with a magic circle, which you use for round pieces too.I do have to say, when you're starting out, don't be afraid to take apart and redo what you're working on many times. Part of it is just training your hands to do the right thing. You will learn more if you're not just committed to finishing, but are practicing understanding the stitches. Also don't be afraid to use lots of stitch markers!There is also an excellent support group on Facebook.Another note, the Woobles also have a variety of kits that include everything you need to do a specific pattern. Some of their kit patterns (some were limited edition or retired) are featured in this book (such as the cactus and dinosaur), while other patterns are only in the book. They still have a lot of animal kit patterns that are not in the book, so if you like their patterns there are still more you can find. Some of those patterns (but not all) are sold individually if you don't want a full kit.

Love this book. It is a great reference resource. Made everything in the book by following along and participating in a Facebook group. There are some patterns that are for similar standalone kits, that in and of itself makes it worth it and was the main reason why I bought it. I just want more.I truly hope she creates another one!! 🙏🏻💓
