Reviews for Knit a Mini Woodland: 20 Tiny Forest Creatures to Knit

Ishii explains essentials like materials and tools upfront, and includes step-by-step color photographs for methods like i-cords, knitted eyes, and pompoms. From badger and hare to brown bear, cub, and woodpecker, each animal is assigned its own directions and photographs, along with one of two levels of experience needed (beginner and intermediate, an equal number of each). -- Barbara Jacobs * Booklist *
