Today’s toy is a snake requested by Aunt Kate. I like to crochet snakes with self-striping yarn, but I always make the tongue in red. pipe cleaners were used and I only stuffed the head so I could get the diamonds shape for the eyes.

Today’s toy is a crocheted pig. Pattern by Lonemer Creations. Using Premier bloom chenille yarn and a 5 mm hook, this pig turned out super squishy. Still, no stuffing shows through. I always turn it into a no sew pattern by just surface crocheting a circle for the legs. I ran out of one of…

Today’s toy is a crocheted bee. Design by @vocininha. Using Premier’s Just chenille and a 4,5 mm hook, this toy is bigger than the design. I like making small patterns with thicker yarn. I’m allergic to bees but this one is adorable.
Today’s toy is a crocheted snowman. Design by Craftingintx. Using Bernat velvet, Just yarn teddy, and a 3 mm hook, this snowman has a blue winter hat on. I returned to what I was doing all of 2024, making a toy every day. This snowman works up quickly and is so soft because of the…
