Knittingfever is super excited to
announce the Monster Crochet
Along with 10 brand new designs made
exclusively for them by FreshStitches: adorable crochet
amigurumi!
Amigurumi is a style of
crocheted (or knit) stuffed animals from Japan with an emphasis on cute. You’ve
probably seen them before, and have maybe even made a few, but this is a whole
new batch to play with.
StaceyTrock has
designed 10 brand new monster patterns for us using Ella Rae Classic Wool yarn. There will be two patterns each week
from now until Halloween.
Meet
Alfo
Your first, fierce new friend is Alfo! A ten-inch tall
googly-eye monster ready to shout his love from the mountain tops. Or maybe the
back of a dark cave, you decide where Alfo lives.
Download the pattern here. You’ll need the main color,
small amounts of two contrasting colors, and plastic eyes (if
desired).
Alfo is made with basic shapes, which makes him a good building block
for the other monsters.
Stacey’s patterns are very well written with clear instructions and
pictures of the various steps to let you know you’re on the right
track.
The second monster looking to creep into your heart is Bixi! This 5.5 inch-tall
bundle of monstrous delight has its arms flung wide in
welcome.
Download the Bixi pattern here. You’ll notice Bixi uses a few
more colors than Alfo.
