Review on Create Your Personalized Menagerie: Step-by-Step Patterns for 24 Adorable Knitted Animals by Barbara Simmons

I already have Knit Your Dog, so I'm familiar with the series by Sally Muir and Joanna Osborne. This particular series is not for beginners. Some of the instructions are a bit vague and you may need to experiment a little to get it right. I will say that templates require a little more patience and time. Knitting small body parts can be tiring. When I finished knitting all the pieces, I had doubts. When the pieces come together, the magic begins. The people I gave them to were quite impressed with the details. Patience pays off.
