Jungle animals have been some of my best-sellers lately, so I was super excited to try out the lion pattern.

Not only would a large lion make the perfect statement piece, but you will be sure to sell some to some lion-loving kiddos!

Crochet Patterns to Create Adorable Amigurumi Critters from Blue Star Press. Of course, I said yes in a heartbeat!
I am absolutely in love with how cute these little crochet flower rattles turned out, and I am already in the process of making up a whole garden of them to sell at my next craft show.

In my pattern review below, you can find more details about this pattern, as well as some adaptations I made to the pattern to meet my customer’s requests and my personal preferences.
