Today’s toy is a crocheted bat. Design by Kein Maker. Using Bernat blanket, Bernat velvet, and a 4 mm hook, I really am disappointed in the eyes I made for this bat. The pattern doesn’t say to put eye in, so I crocheted bug eyes for it and then put white around the eyes so you could see them. Apart from the eyes, I love the bat. Very soft and I love the purple velvet yarn.

Today’s pattern is Octopus Comforter by Donna Wilkins. I used this variegated yarn that I have had for about 20 years. I have made many things with the yarn and have ripped out every one of them because I just didn’t like it. I love the colors in the skein, but I do not like…

The toy is still squishy and will be loved by someone.

Today’s toy is a crocheted axolotl. Design by Sweet Softies. Using Bernat velvet, big twist, and a 3 mm hook, this is a perfect size for a keychain. It can also be a backpack buddy. Velvet is really soft and doesn’t shed. It is also just a worsted weight.
