Pokémon Knitting provides detailed step-by-step instructions so you can create 20 different Pokémon. It's a varied selection, with plenty of interesting colours and shapes to ensure hours of knitting fun. The Pokémon will be instantly recognizable to fans of the phenomenally popular Japanese game and TV series. In all their colourful and wonderful shapes, these soft toys are as true to the craft of knitting as they are to the Pokémon universe.
All Pokémon trainers need to train-themselves and their Pokémon. The same is true with knitting. To help in your training, the book starts with a how-to guide to understanding knitting patterns, then explains and demonstrates the various stitches needed to make the Pokémon. Then it addresses the special techniques you'll need to master, which tools and materials you'll need, and then how to put everything together to make a perfect Pokémon plushie.
The projects are split into three skill levels: Beginners, then Easy, and finally Intermediate patterns that are a little trickier. But whichever level you work on, the results are stunning. The beginner projects start with Gengar, then Jigglypuff, Snorlax, and Scorbunny. Easy projects start with Charmander, then Eevee, Flareon, Pikachu, Psyduck, Squirtle, Piplup, Mimikyu, and Slowpoke. Intermediate projects start with Bulbasaur, then Jolteon, Lapras, Magikarp, Vaporeon, Vulpine, and finally Turtwig.
