Pokémon Crochet Squares Review
A Bit About the Author:
is Ira Rott’s fifth book, and it will officially debut on !
“Hi, my name is Ira. I’m a Canadian fiber artist, pattern designer, and author. I grew up needlecrafting with my mom and grandma, and my childhood was filled with fabrics and yarns. I enjoy sharing my passion for fiber art through my quilting, knitting, and crochet patterns inspired by animals and nature. My happy place is where fabric and yarn meet fun!” (via Amazon.com) You can see more of her work at IraRott.com!

I don’t know how many Pokémon games my kids have, but I know it’s more than one. And you don’t have to play to know who the Pokémon are – they are a cultural phenomenon! A quick internet search tells me that as of August 2025, there are 1,025 Pokémon in the National Pokédex. So while you won’t find ALL of them in this book, you’ll find over 30 – and that’s still a whole lot!
While I don’t know all the names, I know the “main” guys are all here – Pikachu, the Poké Ball, Mudkip, Squirtle, Tepig, Charmander, Bulbasaur… and a bunch of other names that are a bit less familiar to me. In addition to the Pokémon squares, there are patterns that show you how to turn them into a lap blanket, pillow, banner, mug rug, play cubes, and wall hanging!
The patterns in this book were all made using Stylecraft Special DK, but you can use whatever yarn you like. In addition to the yarn, Ira does use a few other tools to bring her squares to life – craft felt, beads, fabric glue, stuffing, and embroidery floss. And from what I see, all that effort is well worth it!
Each pattern includes standard written crochet instructions, charts, and step-by-step instructions with lots of photos. The techniques section in the back really sets you up for success with close-up pics and instructions on how to add the felt and other special details!
Ira always creates the most amazing, beautiful designs, and Pokémon Crochet Squares is no exception. Each little face and square is perfect down to the stitch – truly impressive! If you or someone you love is a Pokémon fan, this book is your next must have!
