Loved the book! Gorgeous colors, photography is amazing. I like easy step by step instructions with lots of pictures. I also appreciate that there are patterns for different skill levels, rated from 1 to 3 stars. Someone could easily start with the 1-star patterns and move up to the 3-star patterns to improve their skills. What I dislike the most it is sewing, as many crafters do. Yet, I totally enjoy the process of creating amigurumis, that being said; assembling and seaming will not keep me from making amigurumis. Honestly, it is wonderful to see a handmade toy appear before my very eyes when it is finished.
