Today’s toy is a crocheted candy holder in the shape of the lovable monster from the movies. Design by Craftingintx. Using Bernat blanket and a 4.5 mm hook, this is much better and quicker to make than the previous version. I drew on the face in the older one with a sharpie so this version will last longer. Again, these will be handed out for trick or treating.

Today’s toy is Bonnie, an experiment in different shapes in a toy. I crocheted her with large feet and stubby legs. There are even toes! She has a barrel body, with her head attached. A foam roller was placed in her neck for stability. I played around with the ears and gave her three loops…
