Mini Darwin the Squid Kit

£15.00

Darwin the Squid was originally designed by Kerry Lord for a crochet workshop at London's Natural History Museum, which is home to the giant squid (over 8 metres long!) that this kit is based on. Using an array of crochet techniques, this squid is quick and easy to make, perfect for any marine-themed display.

Hand-packed into a recyclable and recognisable TOFT box, this crochet kit comes with all the materials and tools you'll need to complete your project, including TOFT's super soft pure DK wool and a printed pattern to follow.

This complete kit forms part of our Edward's Menagerie collection of amigurumi crochet soft toys designed by best-selling author Kerry Lord. Crocheted in TOFT pure wool DK yarn, this project makes a soft, long-lasting and cuddly character that makes an ideal gift for children and adults alike.

A length of black thread for the eyes
A soft grip 3mm TOFT crochet hook
