Mini Richard the Pig first entered the mini menagerie in 2018 and has been a much-loved crochet pattern ever since and is a miniature version of Richard the Large White Pig. Also known as the ‘Yorkshire Pig’, this particular breed of pig was developed in the county during the 19th century and can be identified by its pointed ears and friendly nature. Its crochet counterpart has been designed for complete beginners, so is a great place to start for anyone new to the craft.

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 downloadable 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.
