Reviews

"Crochet Impkins is another amazing amigurumi book by Megan Lapp! With her stitching, she takes us once again, on a fantastical journey to other worlds... While Crochet Impkins might not teach you how to crochet, it will teach you how to create your own amigurumi creature - and how to make each one unique! I mean it when I say I don't think you could run out of possibilities here. Fortunately, Megan takes us through the steps quickly and easily, with a quick intro and a fabulous planning sheet. (Break out the scanner, you'll want to make copies!) Using this sheet, you can start paging through and making your choices. There are 4 basic body styles to choose from: two sitting, and two standing. Pick one of two arm styles, and one of the four belly options, and you're in business! After that, we start at the top - there are 4 antenna styles, 11 ears options, 6 face styles, 21 different hats and hairstyles, 6 types of horns and antlers... You get the idea! Scales, tails, wings, outfits, and accessories all add to the fun. Like a deck of cards, you can mix and match these forever and never make the same amigurumi twice! Add in all the color options, safety eyes, and yarn weights, and wow! Of course, Crochet Impkins is chock full of super cute examples of these combos - and each picture includes a circle with the details you need to make one just like it. There are so many "stitchlings" here to get you started! All the projects pictured are made with worsted weight yarn and a US-G, 4mm crochet book. Megan has a few suggestions, including Red Heart Super Saver. But I think these designs would be just as amazing in a thread - or jumbo yarn! If you or someone you love is into fantasy creatures, both Crochet Impkins and Crochet Creatures of Myth and Legend are must-haves for your crochet bookshelf!"-- "MooglyBlog.com"

With Lapp's (Crochet Creatures of Myth and Legend) hands-on, creative title, crocheters can enter the magical world of Impkins, introduced in the alternative-universe game Loomian Legacy: Veils of Shadow. This book offers a descriptive table of contents, which can be used as a great and quick reference later. It provides helpful tools--a worksheet to copy and reuse, for example--that crocheters can utilize to determine what their project will look like. There are numerous options to choose from: body styles, tails, horns, clothing, and more. Owing to the tighter and numerous types of stitches used, this title is best for crocheters who have already completed a few beginner projects. Basic knowledge of sewing would also be useful for attaching pieces. The author includes links to a few video tutorials for some of the more intricate techniques. This highly imaginative book offers patterns with a backstory for worldbuilding and cleverly sprinkled hints about caring for the new crocheted critters. VERDICT Crocheters will truly delight in picking features for their own creations of Impkins.--Elizabeth Chandler Publishers Note: Megan Lapp's Impkins are a wholly original creation, predating those of Loomian Legacy-- "Library Journal"
