Quite possibly the only thing that's keeping crocheting from becoming an international craze is that people don't realize that you can use this relaxing art form to make monsters. In this spiral-bound guide, the split pages help you to choose exactly the head, arms, and feet you want to customize your own individual crazy critter. On the back of each photo you'll find crocheting instructions, and it's up to you to decide on the colors; to add stripes, spots, or scales; or to sew on one of the extras, like hair, eyes, horns, wings, or tails. Just work from the top down, selecting one of the 30 options for each part of the finished creature, and Kerry Lord includes additional tips for modifying your monsters.
