Lapp forgoes traditional projects, instead detailing how to make numerous body types, ears, faces, hats, hairstyles, and miscellaneous features (wings, horns, antlers) that readers can mix and match... The impkins are cute, and readers will appreciate the innumerable opportunities for customizing their creatures, though even experienced crocheters will want to acquaint themselves with the stitch dictionary, which uses a few symbols readers may not have encountered before. Fans of amigurumi should check this out.-- "Publishers Weekly""Crochet Impkins is another amazing amigurumi book by Megan Lapp!

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.
