Yarn Cake Amigurumi is a collection of 15 adorable amigurumi animals and creatures to crochet using multicolored yarn cakes. Amigurumi is the art of using crochet to make toys, and the 15 projects in this book offer some of the most varied and fun creations you could imagine.
They range from:
- Biscuit, the adorably cute little duckling
- Aggie, the punkish bull
- Garrick, the mythical dragon
- Jasper, the inquisitive puppy
All the projects are made using ombré yarn cakes, which have seamless fades of color hues, from light to dark and allow the readers to crochet lots of color, without the need to constantly change yarn. These creations will stand out among the sea of solid colored amigurumi designs, with their bold, transitional striping and flair.
Create fun and friendly toys with Yarn Cake Amigurumi — they make the perfect gift for loved ones or to keep for yourself!

"Jacki has created a collection of 15 supercute creatures to crochet...Each design leans into the natural colour-changes of the yarn cake that the pattern calls for, while also guiding the reader as to how they can achieve a neat and balanced finish with their toy too, without risking random, unplanned colour changes and designs. The photography throughout the collection is absolutely charming and showcases each creature beautifully."—Crochet Now
