Content:

With this collection of crochet patterns you can choose your favourites from the cutest fungi to a teeny tiny lady bird; through to a miniscule sea serpent or magical wizard. Some of the crocheted creations are as small as a thumbnail while others are no bigger than your thumb. They can even be used as charms, jewellery, keyrings or even dollhouse decorations.

These projects are made using a variety of hook sizes ranging from 0.5mm through to 1.5mm. There is a section about what kind of threads to use including sewing threads, cotton and embroidery threads, however, the projects can also be scaled up by using a larger hook and thicker thread for bigger amigurumi.

There are specific instructions for working at such a small scale including the best ways to hold the thread and hook. Also included are details of how to embroider faces and expressions and adding hair, which really brings the amigurumi to life.

There is also advice about reducing and increasing stitches, counting stitches when working small and how to change colour mid-row, and advice about crocheting in rounds and how to stuff the tiny amigurumi.

As well as the written patterns for all the amigurumi, there are charts for any flat pattern sections. There are also detailed instructions and step-by-step photography and artworks for all the special techniques and stitches such as finishing off and weaving in ends.
