July 8: unicorn

ByCraftingintx

Today’s toy is a crocheted unicorn. Pattern tutorial on YouTube by cotton candy crafts. Using Bernat velvet, Lion Brand ice cream yarn, Red Heart super saver, and a 3 mm hook, this did take quite a while and it is large. I like how the belly is added after the legs and back are made. I used the Bernat yarn for the beginning of the head. I crocheted a chain and then added the hair up and down the chain for the mane. For the tail, I would make a strand of hair, do a foundation sc, and then do another strand of hair. Then I rolled it into a tube and attached to the back.

Today’s toy is a crocheted bear with a pumpkin body. Design by Little world of whimsy. Using Bernat blanket and a 4.5 mm hook, this was a quick make.
