This post on DIY Life isn't new, but it still looks useful--lots of links for amigurumi and other little critters. There's a link to a horse pattern that I had already found and tried myself--very cute. I also appreciated her point that just because a pattern's published, even in a glossy magazine, it doesn't mean it's worth making (the last link on the page). It's like reading recipes--when your inner "yuck" goes off, pay attention. Trust your own taste.
There are also links to Tamie Snow's Roxycraft crocheting site (the one with one particular non-family-friendly word front and center, and a few others here and there; I hate to always have to point those things out, but just be warned); Tamie has a blog there with links to her helpful how-do-I-do-this videos (what's the best way to put little legs on little bodies?). I also like her free Play Ball pattern--nice for a very little one...and the Easter "Bunny Boo."
Maybe somebody should send a box of "Bunny Boos" to the CPSIA legions. If it [almost] worked for the Burgermeister...
