Crocheting Reversible Amigurumi Projects is a fun (and beautiful) collection of reversible soft toys by Jessi Van In. Released 19th March 2024 by Fox Chapel, it's 111 pages and is available in paperback and ebook formats. 

These projects are fun, colorful and appealing. The book contains 6 complete tutorials with several variations of each, as well as a thorough introductory tutorial and all the basic techniques/theory necessary to understand how to do them. Each tutorial contains a complete supplies list, difficulty rating, size (with recommended yarns), and step by step tutorial directions. The book is very well photographed throughout and the "action" shots are rendered without hands or tools obscuring the details (very handy). The photography is clear and in color.

The author makes use of furry "eyelash" yarn on most of the tutorials (see cover photo). The results are very cute and cuddly.

The book also contains a QR code link to the author's website which contains a lot of additional content and video links as well as some free project tutorials. 

Four and a half stars. Well made and very fun. The tutorials are not too advanced for crafters who are familiar with the basics of crochet. The text is clearly written in understandable step-by-step language.

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
