amigurumi patterns in english



I posted this info previously, but did a re: , and so am making it easier for all interested to find;

If you want an english pattern booklet you can get one from this ebay seller, she self-publishes her great crochet patterns. (please do respect her copyright.)

How to Crochet Adorable Amigurumi Animals

http://stores.ebay.com/Gourmet-Crochet

This booklet is nicely printed and easy to use. No charts for the designs, just written directions.

I do not have a personal interest in this and receive no discounts or other consideration for referrals. I hope nobody is offended that I posted a commercial link.

the above seller has the least expensive amigurumi pattern collection that I know of, all others I have seen are one-offs, or are in Japanese (most Japanese books have very clear charts, experienced crocheters should find them easy to use)
search ebay for amigurumi and you will find Japanese books.

I have not seen knitted designs, but they are stitched in rounds, maybe you would able to transpose?
