SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT TIGER PEOPLE
Tiger people are sensitive, given to deep thinking, and capable of great sympathy. They can be extremely short-tempered, however. Other people have great respect for them, but sometimes tiger people come into conflict with older people or those in authority. sometimes Tiger people cannot make up their minds, which can result in a poor, hasty decision or a sound decision arrived at too late. They are suspicious of others, but they are courageous and powerful. Tigers are most compatible with Horses, Dragons, and Dogs
Amigurumi tiger is a lovely gift to make for people who are born in March or any the year of Tiger (1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, 2022). I think your father – the mighty tiger of the house – will also love the handmade gift from you on Father’s Day!
