Picture this: you're at a baby shower, handing over a handmade Cupcake Bear that's almost too cute to part with. Or surprising a friend with Sam the Sloth for their birthday, complete with that lazy grin everyone loves. That's the magic of Crochet Amigurumi for Every Occasion by The Woobles—the Shark Tank-famous crew making crochet accessible and fun.
Amigurumi, those charming stuffed yarn critters, often scare off beginners with tiny stitches and tricky shaping. But this book flips the script. It starts with basics like photo tutorials for every stitch, so even if you've never held a hook, you'll nail it. Patterns ramp up gently in difficulty, building your confidence as you go. Supplementary videos on The Woobles site cover any head-scratchers, meaning no more abandoned projects in a drawer.

Each one uses The Woobles' signature simple designs, with artfully shot photos of the finished toy plus custom step-by-steps for unique bits. Yarn choices are straightforward, and the results? Huggable, detailed creatures that look pro-level without the hassle.
