Erica the Camel Kit

£30.00

Erica the Dromedary Camel plodded into the menagerie in 2014, and has been a firm favourite ever since as a pattern suitable for complete beginners to start their journey learning how to crochet. Dromedary camels are in fact born without their distinctive hump, which develops when they begin to eat solid food. They are also capable of withstanding the loss of up to 30% of their body weight, and can drink 100 litres of water in just ten minutes. TOFT's woolly version of the dromedary camel will take up a little less room that her real-life friends, and drinks considerably less water!

This soft toy will look at home in the nursery, sitting on the shelf or lovingly gift-wrapped for the loved ones in your life. Once you've finished crocheting Erica the Camel, you'll be ready to start the next animal in the collection with this addictive new hobby!

TOFT’s Edward’s Menagerie collection is a series of crochet amigurumi toys designed by Kerry Lord. This crochet animal kit contains TOFT’s quality pure wool yarn and an easy-to-follow pattern. There are video links for all the crochet stitches and techniques used in the pattern to get you started and help you complete your toy.
