Super cute and easy to follow instructions on how to create and crochet mythical creatures. Full of not only adorable patterns, also full of tips and tricks for any beginner up to advance would be interested to add to their arsenal. I greatly appreciated the opportunity to get my hands on an ARC of this book, very cute and I can't wait to make the creatures themselves!
What an ADORABLE book! The designs in here are ridiculously cute - I love them all. The flower fairy is my all time favourite, though. The whole book includes a beautiful range of fantasy themed creatures, with cute designs, lovely colours, and sweet face. Each one is bursting with character. There’s a brilliant ‘how to’ intro section on crochet,, making this book suitable even if you’re a beginner. The accompanying sketches give you fantastic visuals for how to complete each stitch. Would definitely recommend.
Thank you to Callisto Media and Netgalley for an advanced e-copy of this book to read and review.
I always love crafting as long as I can remember. But crochet is my most favorite. The problem is I don't have much time or patience to make big "classic" crochet project such as wearable clothes or doilies. My journey make me found amigurumi in one of blog with Japanesse language and I never never stop making them for almost 10 years until now. Amigurumi (crocheted or knitted stuffed toy) is the Japanese art of knitting crocheting small, stuffed yarn creatures.
Crochet Magical Creatures will help beginner doll maker to jump to this adorable art with so much easier than my personal learning experiences. Author provided all explanations about basic tools, materials and some basic crochet stitches complete with drawing illustrations. He provides sources to make continually learning progress and joining amigurumi community.
In the end theories without practices won't bring us to everywhere. This book provided 20 cute projects patterns to practice and easy enough for beginner to make it. I would glady recommendation this book to my art and amigurumi community.
Thank you Netgalley and Rockridge Press from Callisto Media for provided my copy. I am grateful and my thoughts are my own. Crochet Magical Creatures will release at 13 September 2022.
This book is really cute and informative!
I’m a beginner crocheter, so I’ll have to look up some video tutorials to fully understand how to do some of the handiwork, but after that this book seems really easy and fun to follow! I’m excited to try it out!
