Possible to power 12 volt stepper with 3.7 volt battery?

[Matt Bell]

I have stepper motor that I am driving through a pololu a4988 driver that needs 8 - 35 volts to operate. Is it possible that I can power it through a little lipo battery that outputs 3.7 volts?

You'll need a boost converter circuit.
