Seriously Cute Crochet by Ana Paula Rimoli

This is the book that inspired my intro to the world of crochet over the weekend. Each critter is adorable beyond words, easy enough for a beginner to attempt and I'm pretty sure it won't take me three years to make one, unlike a blanket.

Imagine my delight when I found out that Ana has a blog, thriving Etsy shop, Flickr photostream and she's tweeting too.

Ana is seriously sweet and nice. Read her Etsy Success Story from 2008. I ordered her Moms and Babies pattern set and I'm working on the bunny. I promise to post a photo of the finished project. I am using Lion's Brand organic cotton yarn that I was thrilled to find at Michaels for $7 a skein.
