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.

I am going to make many of these patterns.
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 a crocheted ghost. My pattern. Using Mainstays cozy chenille yarn and 4.5 mm hook, this is a quick make for the trick or treaters for Halloween. I plan to make candy corn and spiders as well to hold the candy. I am using a sharpie for the eyes and mouth. Quicker to…
Today’s toy is a crocheted penguin. Design by Hakiyazart on Instagram. Using Bernat blanket, Mainstays cozy chenille, and a 4.5 mm hook, I did a zipper chain around the colorwork on the face. @nocatchyname, Ella, didn’t like the look of the colorwork changes on the face, so I thought I would try the pattern.
