"Everyone will go wild for these gorgeous crocheted animal rugs. Adults and children alike will adore these beautiful rugs, which would make wonderful gifts and stylish additions to any home."—Simply Crochet

"The textile taxidermy trend is the gift that keeps on giving, and Vanessa Mooncie’s latest collection of crafted creatures is just as delightfully decorative and humorous as any of her earlier books...As well as plenty of plain crochet to form the rugs, there are interesting details to make such as tasselled tails, tufty manes, the tiger’s stripes, the crocodile’s bobbled back and the stuffed, shaped heads."—Knitting

"Let me just say that Vanessa is a genius!...This book included beautiful photos of each rug and each pattern had about 12-15 pages. It was beyond anything I've ever seen...there were step-by-step instructions and a guide to joining in colors and adding all the finishing touches to complete each rug. It was amazing and I definitely recommend this book if you have the time and patience.”—Sweetly Made Just for You

"The patterns and the layout are whimsical and inspiring… Overall, this is a great book for confident beginner crocheters, or more advanced crocheters looking for fun home decor projects.”—Underground Crafter
