Today’s toy is a crocheted Santa gnome, or gonk. Design by Hooked by Kati. Using Bernat’s holiday cotton, Red Heart super saver, Hobby Lobby’s Yarn ID, and a 3 mm hook, I love making Christmas items. It is joyful to use Christmas colors and sparkle yarn. The Bernat yarn is cotton with sparkle, the red and the white. I added the Pom Pom and maybe it is too large? The toy also has floral stones so it sits well.

Today’s toy is a crocheted whale. Using just the blue out of a mandala cake from Lion brand, and a 3 mm hook, this was a quick project for a nice size. I added the smile and the eyelids were a nice touch. It looks like the designer used chenille yarn, but the mandala yarn…
Today’s item is a crocheted pair of ghosts for a purse charm or car ornament. Using acrylic yarn and a 3 mm hook, these are fun to make. Design by Kein Maker, but I did my own version. I put floral stones in each ghost for weight.
Today’s toy is a crocheted doll. This pattern is by Sevgili Ilmkler. Using Jubilee Yarn bamboo cotton sport, Sheepjes Cato a, Yarn Art Jeans, and 2 mm hook, the body of the doll was much smaller than the shoes and jumper. Next time I will use the same yarn. The hair took forever!
