There is a special kind of warmth that comes from crafting a character from scratch – selecting the perfect yarn, shaping a friendly face, and choosing the outfit that suits their unique personality, from cosy picnic-lovers to weekend globetrotters.

Inside, you’ll find yarn suggestions and styling inspiration, alongside:

• One simple, brilliant base pattern to create heads, bodies and limbs – build all of your toys from the same foundation and customise depending on which animal family they belong to.
• More than a dozen wardrobe options that mix and match beautifully – think jeans and a baseball cap, flip flops with a sunhat and a gorgeous beach bag, or a classic duffel coat and Wellington combo.
• Plenty of cute accessories – treat your crochet friends to a mini acorn, a piece of cheese or a bottle of red.

These heirloom toys blend traditional charm with Stuart’s modern flair, ready to fill your home with warmth and joy. Whether you’re making a gift for a friend, crafting toys for the grandchildren, or building a woodland picnic in your living room – craft soft, huggable animal friends that you and your loved ones will treasure for years to come.
