Today’s toy is a crocheted armadillo. I was trying to design an armadillo from a picture I saw online. Using red heart and Hobby Lobby’s yarn ID and a 3 mm hook, I am happy with everything but the shell. Some designs just don’t turn out.
Today’s toy is out of order because I wanted to include it for Easter. The toy is a crocheted container in the shape of a bunny gnome. The pattern is by Olga Chemerys. I used Big Twist in white and Soft Secret yarn in pink and butter. I put candy in it and gave it…
Today’s toy is a crocheted jellyfish. Design by Lauren Espy. Using Lion Brand ice cream yarn, red heart super saver, and a 3 mm hook, this was fun to make, surprisingly. You get to hide all of the ends inside the toy. There are different kinds of strips hanging down. Self striping yarn helps make…
