About South African Safari Blanket
If afghan is what you came for, start here — South African Safari Blanket is the plainest reading of that request on the Amigurumi and Toy Patterns shelf. It comes from Crafty Creations. Plenty of people got here before us: 208 of them saved it. It stands at 5.0 out of 5 across 1 review, and we read the low scores first when there are any.
If you want one use for it, take africa: that is the direction the designer clearly had in mind, and it is the one we would follow. Yarn weight and hook size decide the finished size, so check them against your basket before casting on — the wrong weight shows the stuffing through the stitches. Spend the minute on the preview at full size — it is where you find out whether afghan was the description or the aspiration.
The words on the listing are african, african wild dog, animal and animal granny square, and they are worth reading as a description rather than as tags. You will find it among the amigurumi and toy patterns, sorted next to everything that does roughly the same job. Nearby you will see amigurumi, toy, doll, plush and stuffed, which is where to go if this one is nearly right but not quite. The wording people arrive with is crochet stuffed animals, teddy bear nursery theme, vintage teddy bear nursery, doll handmade and handmade doll house, and we would rather shelve for those requests than for how a thumbnail looks in a grid.

How to use this pattern
- Download the PDF from Creative Fabrica and check the yardage and hook size before you shop — a small gift rarely needs a full skein.
- Work the gauge swatch anyway on anything that has to fit, like a hat or a bracelet; on a stuffed toy you can skip it.
- Stuff toys firmer than feels right and close the seam with a ladder stitch — a gift gets squeezed, and loose stuffing shows within a week.
- Make the first one a week before you need it. The second one is always the one you give away.
