Today’s item is a crocheted angel. Design by Lora Johnson. Using Red Heart fashion 3 thread, Omega baby, Friends cotton, and a 2.5 mm hook, I placed a small Pom Pom inside the head. I love the red skirt and white wings. This is on my tree this year.

Today’s item is a crocheted gnome. Design by ToysMelena. Using Premier Just Yarn teddy, Just chenille, and a 3 mm hook, this was an easy ornament and so soft and squishy. I adorned two of them differently. One has v stitches on the hat and the other one I used tinsel I bought at Dollar…

Today’s item is a knitted snowman hugging a gift card. Design by Lily / Sugar’n Cream. Using Premier Just Yarn and 3.25 mm knitting needles, this was fun to make. I didn’t like the arms of the card holder. I made other snowmen that just have a pocket, not arms. The Just Yarn is at…

Today’s toy is a crocheted Santa gnome. Design by Craftingintx. Using Bernat blanket, Boheme velvet fine, and a 4.5 mm hook, this Christmas ornament was quick and easy to make. I am still trying to get a fat, round ornament shape so I can use it as the body for a bear.
