Enter the world of the reclusive yet mischievous Impkins!
I'm sure you have seen them out of the corner of your eye from time to time, racing from hiding place to nook or cranny--odd little creatures of stitch and stuffing, of endless variety in form and manner. In these pages, you will not find a taxonomy of their features or a list of the names by which you might call them, you will find guidance on something far more important--the techniques and methods by which you might craft one of these little stitchlings of your very own.
It is a wonderful thing, I assure you, to bring an Impkin to life with hook and yarn, and herein you will find the detailed instructions necessary to craft one, with an endless array of options for ears, antennae, hats, wings, tails, scales, horns, hairstyles, clothing, and accessories. Each Impkin is unique, and only you can listen to find out what yours longs to be. Stitch by stitch, you'll cast a spell, until at last you have made a brand-new creature. Don't be surprised if it asks for a snazzy vest or a satchel to hold its treasures!
Though hard to spot at first, when you see one Impkin you can be sure there are more around. Impkins are social little creatures; once you make one, it is sure to clamor for a multitude of friends from your hook!

This quirky outing from Lapp (Crochet Creatures of Myth and Legend) shows how to crochet impkins, or small, stuffed imp-like creatures with oversize eyes. 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.
