Today’s toy is a crocheted walrus. The pattern is part of the Rico design crochet along this Spring. I made it with thicker yarn to make it bigger. Using Big Twist yarn, Bernat value yarn, and 4 mm hook, it was so much fun that I made two.
Today’s toy is another Hoppy the Bunny, a crochet design by me! This time I used Mainstays cozy chenille in white and since that is a bulky weight, I used it for the tail as well. I had the yarn next to my chair and I was in training, so I finished the legs, body,…
Today’s toy is a crocheted clownfish. The pattern is in the book, Animal Amigurumi Adventures by Lauren Espy. It calls for worsted yarn, but I had the perfect color in the leftover orange T-shirt yarn. I also used the gray instead of black because that’s what I had. Running out of the gray, I doubled…

Today’s toy is a crocheted mallard duck. Design by Sweet Softies. Using multiple acrylic yarns and a 3 mm hook, I just used what I had to get the correct colors. This is a great pattern that I have used many times. When I made Lauren’s duck, I just had to make the smaller version.
Today’s toy is a crocheted lamb. I was working on a vintage pattern and the toy was coming out too big, so I ripped out the body, but kept the head. I then used the monkey lovey pattern by Crochet at Teri’s to make a body. The hexagon construction is so fun to make. Using…
Today’s toy is a crocheted ballerina doll. This is a pattern on Etsy by @workroomjulialitvin. Using Hobbii’s 8/4 cotton and Hobby Lobby’s Soft Secret in pink, this was a wonderful pattern and I love the hair. The ruffle is around the top instead of only on the sleeves. I just didn’t read the pattern closely…
