Me too! I want them all🤣! I absolutely agree that the look of the book is important. I tend to really be attracted to anything published by meteor books. All of their books are so attractive and inspiring and well put together 🤗. I think it's an amazing that I have 59 amigurumi books, and there are still some books that you and everyone that have done this tag have inspired me to get. I love seeing everyone's collection. I too am a book snob 😉. We like our books to be attractive and we need to feel that it was worth the money for the book. Thin books feel like pamphlets. Pamphlets are not books🤣. That is the hardest question ever so I can't answer it🤣, but I can tell you the book that everyone freaks out over when I pull it out is the Pokémon crochet book. That book is a definite favorite and the patterns work up well. I can tell you my most treasured book in my collection. It is amigurumi world by Ana Paula Rimoli. She is an excellent beginner designer. I have since progressed from her style, but I love that book because it began this wonderful journey 20+ years ago😊. Thank you for showing us your book collection. It's so exciting to see what inspires us. 🥰

Hi Season 💕 Thank goodness I'm not the only book snob 😉 I appreciate the hard work going into writing patterns, but I also want to feel inspired! I am quite jealous of your 59 books 😅 But it's fantastic that we all have a love of crochet books 🥰 I really want to get the Pokemon book, and it might just be one of the next ones I buy.

Hi Cassandra! I'm an American who lived in South Africa in the garden route area for 33 years. I arrived there in 1984 when I was 26 and I came back in 2016. Boy did America change! Actually South africa was a very different place in 1984. I'm enjoying your channel!!

My craft of choice is knitting. But I found this tag not long ago and I fell through the rabbit hole. Books and yarn are my loves. When you join the two, I'm lost. I presently have 21 amigurumi books, 8 are on the way to me and 12 are in my Amazon basket (for now!!!). I prefer the physical books because I tend to forget the digital ones. And I too am a snob. Unredeemable. I'm trying to make at least one pattern from each book. No books are going to stay unused. But, of course, I want to have all the books and I want to make all the patterns (several times). I have to say some of my favourite are French. There's a companion book to the Noel one (about la Mer) and I'm now making a doll from the book Les poupées de Lulu au crochet. This is an adorable book.

The first amigurumi book I bought was the Pica Pau book, because I loved the animals pictured so much…….and I couldn’t even crochet! However, I taught myself crochet by watching KZbin and this book motivated me to keep practicing until I felt confident enough to try amigurumi. Many animals and creations later, my favourite amigurumi book is Loveable Amigurumi Toys by Mari-Liis Lille. Her patterns are beautiful and I’ve made a few from this book. The book itself is lovely quality with excellent photos, because I’m a book snob too!

I enjoyed your book review so much. I especially like that you have made things from so many of your books and could comment on the content. I am very guilty of purchasing amigurumi books but not making from them. Instead I purchase patterns from Etsy. I believe it is because I can read the pattern from my phone or iPad easily as opposed to trying to keep the book open to the correct page. My favorites are the same as yours, both #1 and #2. I have started collecting Zoomigurumi and have the first 10 thus far. But I prefer more complicated patterns when it comes to actually making them. I really enjoy your channel.

I think when buying a book of crochet patterns rather than an individual pattern from ravelry or Etsy for example, I want to see extensive photographs! I want the book to be fun to flip through even if I'm not planning on making a pattern. That said I really enjoy the TOFT Edward's Menagerie books!! The animals are very sweet, though a little more understated than pica pau (who are my other favourites!). More natural colours and plain animals from Toft.

Oh Cassandra, you made me laugh. I'm fairly new to Amigurumi making...always thought it was kind of dumb and then I saw Queen Elizabeth and making her started me on my Ami journey! I only have a couple books but have many printed patterns, either free or paid for. I am a book snob, too, so I understand how you feel about skinny paid for books. My favorite bookstore was Gene's Books on Sanibel Island in Florida. 5 buildings full of books. Sadly it was destroyed by hurricane Ian and they have decided not to rebuild. I really like the Crochet Cute Critters book. Very beginner friendly and I've made several stuffies from that book. Look forward to buying the PicaPau books.

It wasn't my favorite list of animals though. I would like to collect all of those one day. I have been eyeing Amigurumi monsters since I've seen a lot of people have that one.

As for amigurumi books I have counted all I own and it's more than 100 *gasp*! But I haven't made stuff from all of them as I'm also a massive hoarder of digital patterns...

What book would you recommend for a beginner

Probably the best beginner book is 'Amigurumi made easy' by Mariska Vos-Bolman. Super cute patterns that are not too difficult, but will still teach you some good techniques.

Have you had any trouble with the pica pau books as far as errors in patterns?

Hello Season 🌼 No, not that I can recall of the ones I've done. But of course. I haven't done all of them. Are you having an issue with a pattern?

@@craftablyeverafter no im having an issue with a review of the book sorta. One of the crafty friends that was showing their books. Said it was riddled with errors and that she wouldnt recommend the books. I was shocked, i love these books and have never heard a negative word about them. So i just reached out to some people who have worked these patterns to see if i am missing something. Thanks for responding🥰

Dress up Amigarumi would be my favorite. I researched Amazon for it. But I enjoy dressing my little stuffies. I make them blankets as well.
