Reviews
Yarn Cake Amigurumi does exactly what it says it will do – make amigurumi, from a yarn cake! Jacki has created a collection of 15 supercute creatures to crochet, from the humble sheep to a mighty dragon, and a popular axolotl too. Each design leans into the natural colour-changes of the yarn cake that the pattern calls for, while also guiding the reader as to how they can achieve a neat and balanced finish with their toy too, without risking random, unplanned colour changes and designs. The photography throughout the collection is absolutely charming and showcases each creature beautifully. -- Jenny Conduit * Crochet Now magazine * Yarn Cake Amigurumi from GMC Publications is an ideal, fun, and unreservedly recommended pick for personal, professional, and community library Needlecraft/Crochet collections. * Mid-West Book Review * ...ideal for crocheters who have the basic stitches down and who enjoy crocheting dolls and toys. The patterns are adorable and the book is filled with bright colors and whimsically styled projects, so it will inspire you to make your next project. -- Marie Segares * Underground Crafter *
