Make It Your Own

This book is to let people know that you can adjust any pattern to fit any project you want to make. I hope this book will also encourage young people to try it and you will succeed. Hopefully this book will help you create many toys to sell or give away. With the different types of yarn available in the stores today the beautiful colors, textures, and ideas you have for them you can have a successful business. When creating your own design most people like original designs and usually increases business. When you add or decrease stitches that changes a pattern write it down you may want to use it again. I prefer smaller toys for the younger children. For older children they like toys in their favorite color and like a larger one. The different textures of yarn today makes it easier to make the toy look real especially the fuzzy ones for rabbits or dog and cats. Sparkling yarn for clothes. Fine yarn for small detail. Making toys you create may get a name or speaks to you what colors to use, what size it should be or who should have it. Remember when you buy yarn the same company brand works well. Soft yarn for hair and clothes and firmer yarn for body, hats and shoes. Most of all enjoy this hobby and learn some new techniques to make it your own.
