The new title follows the previously released Stardew Valley Cookbook and brings a dedicated amigurumi pattern collection to fans of ConcernedApe's farming sim.
ConcernedApe, the developer and creator of Stardew Valley (Eric Barone), enlisted crochet designer Megan Lapp to produce the patterns, and cookbook author Ryan Novak returns to contribute to the project.
Penguin Random House is listed in publisher materials related to the series.
What the book contains
The Stardew Valley Crochet Book includes 25 core amigurumi projects with pattern variations that expand the total output to more than 45 distinct creations.
The range of projects is intended to suit different skill levels: straightforward patterns cover small pieces such as Slimes and Eggs, while more complex designs include larger, decorative items like a Mermaid Pendant described as suitable for special occasions.
Pattern highlights and features
The collection features patterns for many familiar in-game items and characters.
Readers can make Junimos, Slimes, Parsnips, Geodes, the Galaxy Sword replica, and novelty items such as the Lucky Purple Shorts.
Chicken patterns offer customizable beak, comb, and tail feather options, enabling representations of Blue, Brown, Golden, and Void chicken varieties.
The book also provides instructions for building a Junimo Hut, including color variations for seasonal displays.
Design and editorial elements
Like the Stardew Valley Cookbook, the crochet book contains original illustrations and in-character headnotes that contextualize patterns using the game's tone and setting.
The involvement of established contributors and the inclusion of editorial artwork aim to mirror the presentation seen in prior licensed Stardew Valley books.
Availability and formats
Pre-orders for both hardcover and ebook editions are live across multiple retailers and through official channels.
Interested buyers can find ordering information on the official Stardew Valley books website.
Stardew Valley itself remains available on Nintendo Switch and other platforms, and licensed tie-in books continue to expand the franchise's physical-product lineup.
For collectors and crafters who follow ConcernedApe's work, the Stardew Valley Crochet Book represents a new way to bring in-game characters and items into the real world, with a January 26, 2027 street date and pre-ordering already open.
