Crocheted Softies book reviewMilton the Slowpoke Snail

Review: There are 18 different animals, broken down by the 7 continents, and then an additional category for oceans and one for outer space. Each category has 2 animals. The main section shows you how to make the main body parts that are used in many of the animals (sphere, legs, and arms). Then each element exclusive to a certain animal (ex: elephant ears or alligator snout) is written under that particular animal. The layout is very easy to follow. Martingale has included general information (gauge, terms, abbreviations), as well as stitches and techniques.

Bonus: There are “Fiber Notes” throughout the book, giving you bonus info about the yarn that was used.
