Today’s toy is a crocheted monkey. The pattern is by Mariska Vos-Bolman and is written for many weights of yarn. Using Hobby Lobby’s soft secret yarn and a 2 mm crochet hook, this toy is small. The muzzle doesn’t look like the picture in the pattern, but my aunt guessed that it was a monkey. It was a different body shape.
Today’s toy is a crocheted Santa. Design by Little Crochet Farm (Ana Carolina Figueiredo). Using Bernat Velvet, Loops and Threads petite purl, Premier Just Chenille teddy, Premier Just yarn, and a 3 mm hook, this toy came out bigger than the last time I made it. Last time I used sport weight cotton. It sold…
Today’s item is a crocheted gingerbread man holding a candy cane. Design by Jennifer Renaud. Using Bernat Blanket and a 4.5 mm hook, I am proud of the back of this ornament. You might notice from the pictures that the embroidery on the front doesn’t show on the back. I did a great job if…
Today’s toy is a butterfly that I had to size down since I was using Hobbii’s Honey Bunny Candy yarn that is a bulky weight. I crocheted with a 5 mm hook and used the blue and purple. I don’t recall what I did to resize the pattern and I didn’t write it down. When…
Today’s crocheted toy is little cat from Julia Litvin. Using Hobby Lobby’s Yarn Bee Yarn ID in Rosewater and a 3 mm hook, I crocheted the arms and knitted an icord for the tail before I made the body. That way, I could attach the arms and tail as I was crocheting the body. I…
Today’s toy is a crocheted frog. Design by Karina Nunez. The pattern said long legged, but I don’t agree. I made keychains with these little ones. Planning on using chunky yarn to make larger ones. Using acrylic yarn and a 3 mm hook, these are quick to make. They do look better with safety eyes….
Today’s item is a crocheted car ornament for Halloween. Design by Craftingintx. Using different acrylic yarns and both 2.25 and 3 mm hooks, I made a pumpkin, ghost, cat, and spider to hang off of a planter. I think it would look better with DMC floss. Maybe, I will try that next year.
