[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars I was blown away by how much detail and care has gone into creating the book, not only by the quality of the images but by the simple but well put together instructions to create each project within the book. Being new to Crocheting I found a couple of projects to give a go. Will definitely be looking out for more craft books by Cara.

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars Beautiful, whimsical toys. You can see on the cover the style of the dolls in this book, in their pastel tones, long limbed and serene faces. The book has in depth instructions for making every animal from head to toe, even basic crochet instructions for the hat and scarf of one of the little friends. You can choose your own materials or take inspiration from those in the book. Every step is photographed and explained. At the back you can find photocopiable pattern pieces for all the parts you need to make each doll. Happy sewing!

I love the way this book is structured. In order to fully understand how to use the dyes in a given season to make the accompanying project, those first six chapters are must-reads. They cover how to harvest plants for maximum color yield, how to choose fabrics with a fiber content with which the dyes can react, what tools you'll need, and various dye processes and recipe additions such as lemon juice or vinegar (acids) and chalk or wood ash (alkalis).
