Today’s toy is a crocheted candy cane pillow. Design by Brittany Dickson. Using Bernat blanket, Mainstays cozy chenille, and a 4.5 mm hook, this was pretty simple to make. I like the changing stitches to make the arc. The pillow was made to put a reindeer in it, candy cane upside down. I will share that soon.

I have embroidered snowflakes before so it wasn’t difficult, but tricky the first time you…
Today’s toy is a knitted pig, but I crocheted all of the extra parts. The pig was knitted as a ball and then I crocheted four legs, a snout, ears, and a curly tail. Used Bernat velvet in quiet pink and Big Twist plush in black. I am pleased with this toy, very squishy.
Today’s toy is a crocheted puppy. Design by NaimanovaToys on Etsy. Using Premier Just chenille, Mainstays cozy chenille, and a 3.5 mm hook, working with black yarn isn’t fun. Love the final result.
