Today’s toy is a crocheted raccoon lovey. This pattern is by Elisa Sartori. I didn’t realize how big the pattern would be. After the head, I decided there would not be enough yarn, so I crocheted the blanket with different yarns. The yarns used: Hobby Lobby’s soft secret, Big Twist twinkle, and Yarn Art Jeans. The hook: 2.5 mm

Today’s toy is a crocheted cookie. Design by Lauren Espy. Using Crafter’s square and Premier anti-pilling everyday dk and a 3.5 mm hook, this was fun to make with two circles. I put the face on it to make it a toy. I usually leave the faces off of food items.

Today’s toy is a crocheted candy holder in the shape of an eyeball. Design by Craftingintx. Using Bernat blanket yarn and a 4.5 mm hook, this looks like an eye. Black, then purple, then white. I probably won’t make many of these. I added red on the last round with spike stitches to represent veins.
