Crochet Creatures of Myth and Legend: 19 Designs Easy Cute Critters to Legendary Beasts Paperback – March 1, 2023

The patterns in this book are written so that you can mix and match parts and sort of create your own creature recipe. Really cute designs and easy to follow patterns.

Full disclosure: I’ve been following Megan’s patterns for a while now and was already used to her style of pattern writing which tends to be a lot longer than most patterns out there. She does an awesome job of being very thorough and explaining all the bits, but it can definitely be a lot to take in if it’s your first time!I bought this specifically for the adult dragon pattern requested by my daughter. She had great fun looking through the pictures and choosing what type horns, ears, tail decoration, belly, back spikes, and face she wanted and then was very impatient waiting for it to be done, lol.Patterns went smoothly aside from a minor hiccup on the belly scales that I was able to sort out by making use of Megan’s Facebook group to figure out where I’d gone wrong.Next up is a kraken!

Bought it for my granddaughter. She’s making really beautiful fantasy animals

Ive made a unicorn and started the cockatriece.The directions are easy to follow.It doesnt just write out the directions for each creature, it lists the pages you have to go to to find the body parts for each creature since some parts are used for more than one pattern.That took a bit to get used to but i created a very cute creature out of it.

Amazing book! And super easy to follow. For the very few confusing parts, the included YouTube videos make them make sense.

I've been crocheting for 30 years. I would consider myself an intermediate crochet-er, as I can CREATE my own patterns for clothes, etc. However, I'm not that great at following patterns. This book was very easy to understand and follow instructions.My main complaint is that the instructions have many designs going around and around pieces that are only 5 stitches around. For someone with carpal tunnel and major cramping issues in my thumb muscles, this is a painful thing to do for an hour non-stop. Carpal tunnel is very common in long-term crochet-ers. I'm just wondering if we can do the tiny pattern pieces of the dragon tail as a flat, and then just sew the seam together at the end, for example. That would make it much less painful for us long-term crochet people.Other than that, the patterns are clear and the photos next to each step are VERY helpful. The colors she chose are beautiful. And I adore every single pattern she wrote. All in all, I think it's the best pattern book I've ever tried. My poor hands will forgive me, at some point.I will update with photos when I finish my dragon. and more photos when my 13 year old (beginner) finishes hers.

Thank you, love the different types of mythic creatures in this book

Beautiful!!! easy to follow instructions with diagrams and great pictures. Our God-daughter got this book from the library and liked it so much we purchased one for her so she could do all the patterns. She absolutely loves this book.She is not a pro crocheter but loves doing it. This book has easy to understand directions, lovely pictures and is well written.
