Amigurumi Fish Bookends

By Matt Farci

Amigurumi Fish Bookends

Matt Farci’s colourful Amigurumi Fish Bookends are perfect for the shelves of a nautical-themed nursery or beach house, and the ideal gift for aquarium enthusiasts. With a rainbow of 113 colours in the Scheepjes Catona range, there are countless colour combinations you could choose from to crochet your own set. Made in the spiralling amigurumi technique throughout, textural scallops, fins and embroidered eyelashes are charming additions. To make sure assembly goes swimmingly, Matt has included instructions for cutting and constructing the wooden elements, if you don’t have bookends ready to upcycle.
