Today’s toy is a crocheted lobster from the pattern Blue Lobster by Spin a Yarn Crochet. I love her rag doll patterns but do not like this lobster pattern. The pinchers in my opinion are not shaped right and the legs are too bulky. This pattern uses bulky “blanket” yarn, so I used the plush yarn from Joann. Still trying to use that up. I just need to find a pattern I like that uses such a large gauge. I used a 6 mm crochet hook.
Today’s item is a crocheted angel. Design by Lora Johnson. Using crochet thread and a 1.5 mm hook, this was quite simple to make. I made two of them, one I will sell once I have the storage items I need for proper shipment. I use a cone for the dress of the angel and…
Today’s toy is a crocheted sheep. Design by Kein Maker. Using Regia sock yarn, Crafter’s Square and a 2 mm hook, this was quick to make. I used thinner yarn than called for in the pattern. It probably looks cuter with the blanket yarn.
Today’s crocheted toy is a mouse. I saw a picture of a mouse online and I just had to make it. I just made up the pattern. Yarns used: Hobby Lobby’s Soft secret in mist held double, and peaches and cream cotton in light pink. Jo’s web on YouTube has a tutorial for the eyes,…
Today’s toy is a crocheted bear with a pumpkin body. Design by Little world of whimsy. Using Bernat blanket and a 4.5 mm hook, this was a quick make. I changed up the feet and the eyes, but the rest of the bear is made to pattern.

Today’s toy is a crocheted grinch. Design by Ana Carolina Figueiredo. Using Red Heart crochet nylon thread and a 2.25 mm hook, this is such a cute pattern. I have made three now and probably will make more since I bought more green yarn, the perfect green for the grinch.
Today’s toy is a crocheted candy holder. Design by Craftingintx. Using Bernat blanket and a 4.5 mm hook, this is a striped cat in the colors of candy corn. I used embroidery floss for the face. Using my pattern for the black cat, I started with orange and finished in yellow. Then I added white…
