In issue 79 of Simply Crochet, we headed out on safari, drawing inspiration from nature for our animal collection – heading up the set is a showstopping crocheted tiger skin rug by talented designer, Vanessa Mooncie (do you remember our elephant head – she designed that too!). There’s more to choose from – a zebra bolster, leopard skin cushion, giraffe throw and snakeskin table runner – take your pick!

You can now download our amazing tiger rug pattern from Raverly here!

If you would like to get hold of our entire animal print collection, Simply Crochet issue 79 is available as a digital edition, for Apple phones and tablets, Android phones and tablets, the Barnes & Noble Nook, and to read through Zinio as PDFs. Click here to find the right version for you.
