Dear insect and knitting lovers,
Welcome to Lalilaland!

The small caterpillar that hatches from the egg becomes a pupa over time, and then breaks free from the hard cocoon and transforms into a butterfly with beautiful wings, a ladybug with cute black spots, or a stag beetle with impressive horns.
Introducing the "Lalilala Insect Hand-Knitted Doll Crochet Pattern Book," where you can experience the life cycle of an insect, from egg to adult, through cute hand-knitted dolls.
Unlike existing knitting books, this book is based on the world of knitted dolls by Lydia Tresselt, author of 'LilLilLilLand', and contains a heart-fluttering story about 'dreams' along with instructions on how to make the main characters in the story into knitted dolls.
Not only does it allow us to naturally learn about the growth of insects through the way the main character, a caterpillar, transforms into a beautiful butterfly over time, it also provides a natural opportunity to think deeply about 'my dream'.
The insect's appearance as it grows along the story is reborn through the fingertips of author Lydia Tresselt.
Insects expressed in a variety of patterns and bright colors can be made in a variety of ways with just one crochet needle, from tiny aphids to flies, ladybugs, stag beetles, and butterflies.

Based on the patterns in the book, try crocheting the small insects from Lalilaland, and apply the patterns to create your own hand-knitted dolls of the small, cute insects from everyday life.
Discover the small but magnificent world of insect knitting, brimming with endless possibilities!
