Today’s toy is a bluebird of happiness knitted with Bernat blanket yarn and size 5 mm needles. This design is by Sara Elizabeth Kellner. I had to add the accents to the bird, the lines for wings and beak and the legs/feet because it just looked like a blue blob. Not happy with the yarn choice.
Today’s toy is a knitted owl. This design is mine. I made this one a little smaller. Using Big twist cotton and size 2 needles, this pattern is so quick. I really enjoyed the speckled yarn.
Today’s toy is a knitted frog head. I used the same shape as the bunny head.

I did not sew them on. I used scrap yarn…
Today’s toy is a knitted bear. Using big twist black yarn, Hobby Lobby soft secret in honey, and Yarn ID in Himalayan sea salt, and size 2 knitting needles I knitted another Izzy doll. These are so simple to make and will bring joy to a little child. I did want to clear my needles…

Today’s toy is another knitted owl from my design. Using Hobbii’s honey bunny candy, it made a much larger toy. I used 4 mm needles. I enjoy making birds. The beak was edged in white so it would be visible.
