Today’s toy is a crocheted unicorn. Pattern tutorial on YouTube by cotton candy crafts. Using Bernat velvet, Lion Brand ice cream yarn, Red Heart super saver, and a 3 mm hook, this did take quite a while and it is large. I like how the belly is added after the legs and back are made….
Today’s toy is a crocheted monster. Design by Craftingintx. Using Varna’s Choice, Bernat velvet, YarnArt Jeans yarn, and a 4.5 mm hook, this is simple to make but so effective.
