Hi there! I have made three bunnies and none of them has the same head shape (with nose slightly curved upfront), but instead a more uniform pebble kind of shape. Any tips what I am doing wrong?
@@PizzaHeadMan There will be lots more to come in the future - with our crochet Conservationists subscription - which explores extinct and endangered species. See more at www.edsanimals.com

So many tips thank you! Came back to crochet just over a year ago after many years away and Toft have won my heart, honed my skills and given me the confidence to just go for it. Animals, birds, blankets, cardigans, jumpers. I can do it! Keep crocheting! 🧶🥰
been stuck in bed immobile and doing this has kept me sane its so new to the usual i enjoyed it, and being able to move time slider for video is helpful as i can skip to the parts i needed.
Thank you so much for this video. I had to watch it many times ( my problem not the video) but I eventually worked it out. And now my Caribou will have his frilly bits. It has got easier the more I practised. I am feeling very pleased with myself that I finally managed to manipulate my very stiff finger joints.
Where csn i buy the pattern? I went to the site where i have always placed my orders but i coulnt find it to buy so i could the cal! Can someone help me pleaae? Thank you!❤
@@stephaniebatchelor8314 The pattern is printed in our Autumn magazine - which is in Books, Magazines. We also currently have an Autumn 24 category where you can see all the latest designs including 2 blanket kits (one multi colour and one single colour which come with .pdf patterns). The magazine is also available on our Subscriptions website www.edsanimals.com if you wanted to join and get the physical magazine (including CAL pattern) as well as free bonus .pdf pattern for other designs.
Hi Kerri, I realised, after I watched your video, that I have been doing FP BP trebles wrong all this time. This will help me with ribs on hats making them much neater. I'm loving this blanket and am doing another in a single colour alongside my multiple colour one. Of course, I may come to regret that when the stitches get more difficult😂😂
For those of us who got overzealous doing our front post back post and maybe forgot to count our rows, is there any easy way to count them? I’m not entirely certain I did the number stated, but I ended on a wrong side and it looks roughly the same height as the treble square. 🤷♀️
@@s0sostris with Front/Back Post Trebles it can sometimes be easier to count the horizontal bars between the treble stitches. It sounds like you’ve got the right number though! 🧶💕
Yes, you can use any yarn (just match your hook to the thickness of yarn). Using different yarn will mean you may need different quantities to the ones listed in the pattern, but so long as you use the same yarn type throughout the blanket the panels will stitch work. 🧶💕
Thank you for this Kerri, I have to confess that I was so excited to fo this one that I'm halfway through the next panel but I've stopped till I see your next video to make sure I'm doing it right. It's a beautiful blanket pattern. Thank you.😊😊
@@lozegan3220 Hi there, the pattern is available in the Toft magazine which you can buy directly from Toft. It's a beautiful magazine containing 5 knit and 5 crochet patterns.
@@judithomas5508 Thank you 💕 It’s not available as a digital download only. It is currently available as 2 kits (one single colour and one multi colour) and is printed in our Autumn Magazine. The magazine is available as a one off purchase or as a quarterly subscription which also includes bonus digital patterns to make other pieces from the Autumn collection. 🏕️
Kerry, this tutorial is fantastic. I love that you take us step by step through the process of making an amigurumi. I have several of your booKS and now am more confident making a lovely animal/doll etc. A great big THANK YOU. 👍💗👍
hello!! do u know when the bird book will be restocked?? I was hoping to buy one with the 50% sale but they were all sold out, and will the sale still be there when it's restocked?
Hey Abundantstudio, Toft don’t sell just the pdf of this pattern. In order to get it you need to buy the kit or the quarterly magazine they have. I live in Australia and brought the magazine just for this pattern.
Would you ever be able to show how you started the pattern for the waffle cone? I’m better learning visually so if u even had to pay for a video I would since paying for a pattern I feel wouldn’t do me any good it would be confusing 😅
