Asako Ito crochets each Pokémon by hand as an amigurumi figure, then photographs it for the card. What you see on the card is a real, soft, three-dimensional object — stitches and all.
A handmade rarity
Working on the TCG since the Sun & Moon era, her crochet cards are scattered across sets like Celestial Storm and Silver Tempest. Because nothing else looks like them, collectors seek them out specifically for the novelty and craft.
Build a binder page
Ito's crochet cards are a showstopper page on their own — group them for a soft, handmade 'craft' spread that nothing else in a binder looks like.
Collector tip
They're cult favorites because the medium is so unusual, so they punch above their rarity for display — a few crochet cards make a binder page instantly memorable.
