Honk! Beep! Vroom! – Crochet Toys That Move by Cathy Smith contains 8 of the most adorable crochet vehicle patterns that actually move! The patterns are all very beginner friendly with detailed instructions to help you create your car. Each project contains a material list, gauge, and instructions for creating your car and assembling the wheels to make them move. Here are a few of the fun projects that you will find in this book:

School Bus, p47 (my favorite!)

Here is a full list of the patterns found in this book:

  • Police Car
  • Taxi Cab
  • Ambulance
  • Convertible
  • Dump Truck
  • VW Beetle
  • School Bus
  • Fire Truck


These adorable little cars are great for any car lover, children and adults alike. What is really great about this book is that Cathy goes into great detail about creating the different vehicles and also provides a basic crochet stitch guide that will be helpful to beginners.

You can purchase Honk! Beep! Vroom! – Crochet Toys That Move from Martingale for $18.99 for the printed version + eBook or $13.99 for just the eBook. You can also purchase this book from Amazon.

I hope you will purchase this great book and try out all of the projects! If you already own it, leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

    Very cute. The convertible is my favorite! I wonder how well they would hold their shape if you put them in the wash?

      They are very cute! I am not sure how they would hold up in the wash but I would try taking the wheels off and taking the dowels out before washing it.
