Yarn Cake Amigurumi is a collection of 15 adorable amigurumi animals and creatures to crochet using multicolored yarn cakes.

Amigurumi is the art of using crochet to make toys.  The varied and fun creations in this book range from Biscuit, the adorably cute little duckling, and Aggie, the punkish bull, to Garrick, the mythical dragon, and Jasper, the inquisitive puppy.


All the projects are made using ombré yarn cakes, which have seamless fades of color hues, from light to dark and allow the readers to crochet lots of color, without the need to constantly change yarn. These creations will stand out among the sea of solid colored amigurumi designs, with their bold, transitional striping and flair.


  • 15 adorable amigurumi animals to crochet
  • Each animal measures 5–10in (12.5–25cm) in size, making them perfect for play or display
  • Clear step-by-step instructions and photographs
  • Projects suitable for beginner or intermediate level

Review

“We love amigurumi here at Crochet Now … If we were to judge a book by its cover – and let’s face it, we all do that – then we would definitely pick up this one! Yarn Cake Amigurumi does exactly what it says it will do – make amigurumi, from a yarn cake! … Jacki has created a collection of 15 supercute creatures to crochet, from the humble sheep to a mighty dragon, and a popular axolotl too. Each design leans into the natural colour-changes of the yarn cake that the pattern calls for, while also guiding the reader as to how they can achieve a neat and balanced finish with their toy too, without risking random, unplanned colour changes and designs. The photography throughout the collection is absolutely charming and showcases each creature beautifully. Step-by-step photography aids even beginners along their amigurumi journey... Jacki gives each toy a little touch of detail too, including outlining eyes with thread for a truly spectacular finish – don’t worry, she shows you how inside the book. We can’t wait to hook up a party of colourful animals this Christmas with Yarn Cake Amigurumi!” ― Crochet Now Magazine

Love these patterns. They’re so classic and adorable. The suggested yarn is really fun. It’s in UK terms though, so that was a bit of a learning curve for me. (i.e. their DC stitches are SC stitches for us ‘mericans)

5.0 out of 5 stars The cutest creatures from land and sea!
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2023
Verified Purchase
Jacki’s book shows you how to create a fun mix of animals from land and sea, with sweet little intros to each creature and its environment. She’s provided clear and comprehensive instructions in a beautifully laid out and designed book, and there are choices for all skill levels. The crisp photography lets you see the finished product and individual parts in close detail.

These crochet creatures make perfect gifts, and you can really personalize them when you choose your yarn cakes. I love to follow this artist on DearJackiStitchery to see what she’s creating and download free patterns when she offers them. I really hope she writes another book!

I bought this book for my wife and we wanted to leave a review to commend the author and publisher on the quality of the book and its printing. The designs of the animals/critters by the author are adorable and the patterns are very easy to follow (I'm trusting my wife on this latter part because I am no expert on crochet or any other yarn craft, haha). But as a layman, I can at least say that the book looks and feels amazing. We're happy with our purchase and I'm excited to see the results of these patterns!
5/5 from us.

This book is adorable. Each of the patterns makes solid, huggable friends with lots of good structure and durable design. The instructions are clearly laid out with pictures and easy-to-follow steps. The entire book is like a beautiful, soothing piece of art. I've never wanted to crochet more than when I opened this book. I'm in love with DearJackiStitchery and the magic she creates. So glad she's shared it with the rest of us.
