You may have realised this isn't your standard handmade toy teddy bear, bunny, deer or fox kinda place (no shade on them, they're all VERY cute animals).
But if...
• You've struggled to find Aussie wildlife inspired toys
• You're wanting to crochet something weird and wonderful that's a little bit different to the norm
• You want to give a unique and special gift that absolutely no one else will be giving
• OR you might just really loooooove snuggling with Australian animals because YOU KNOW that they're not as creepy, scary or brutal as many people make them out to be - at least in their plushie form!!
If one or allllllllll of these sounds like you, then welcome to your Aussie amigurumi (crocheted toy) dreams!
About me
My name's Adele and I was your typical corporate ZOMBIE. Not creative in the slightest, until yarn and crochet wiggled its way into my heart and my brain (I know that invokes images of me having some kind of weird yarny parasite situation going on, I'm really sorry ...but it's not too far from the truth! bahahahaha).
Crochet started for me on a whim ten years ago. A skill learned from YouTube to maintain some sense of self through the haze of new parenthood, but has now taken over my life and become my complete obsession!!
I grew up in the country, spending lots of time camping, exploring and traveling around Australia. So when I started creating my own designs, of COURSE I had to make the Australian animals I've been lucky enough to grow up seeing.
By making toy versions of this unique, weird and wonderful wildlife, I'm hoping to share the love for Aussie birds and animals to you and your loved ones too!
