Hooks and Heroes is one for the makers who’ve always wanted their crochet projects to roll for initiative.
Inside you’ll find 13 wonderfully detailed amigurumi adventurers to crochet, each with their own distinct personality, fantasy-inspired backstory, and playable character rules to bring them right into your tabletop games. From noble paladins to wandering druids and charismatic bards, these are proper little heroes — full of charm both on and off the gaming table.
What makes this book especially fun is how beautifully it blends crafting and roleplay. You’re not just making characters to sit on a shelf; you’re creating companions with stories, quirks, and a place in your next campaign.
The patterns are clearly written and supported with full-colour photographs throughout, making them approachable whether you’re newer to amigurumi or already confident with a hook in hand. The projects themselves are full of thoughtful details and personality, giving each character a finished look that feels truly unique.
Perfect for crochet lovers, tabletop gamers, fantasy fans, or anyone who enjoys projects with a bit of storytelling woven in. Honestly, it’s hard not to get attached to them.
