Today’s toy is Sunburst the sunflower, a crocheted creature. It is a free pattern on the Hobbii website. Using Scheepjes catona cotton and a 2 mm hook, there were 16 petals! At least for the larger ones, you connected them before sewing them onto the head. But the nine on the front row were sewn individually. Love the idea though I prefer the donut daisy I made.

Today’s toy is a crocheted panda by little crochet farm. Using Big Twist Tshirt yarn from Joann and a 6 mm hook, it turned out much larger. I love how it turned out.
Today’s toy is a crocheted whale. Design by NaimanovaToys on Etsy.

These whales are quite small. I might donate them to the shoebox ministry.
Today’s toy is a crocheted gnome. This time it is the snowflake gnome. Design by Kristi Simpson. Using Hobbii’s rainbow cotton 8/4, Garden 5, Scheepjes Catona, and a 2 mm hook, this was one of the simple ones to make. I have embroidered snowflakes before so it wasn’t difficult, but tricky the first time you…
Today’s toy is a crocheted lamb. Design by Lua Martinez. Using Bernat blanket, bernat velvet, and a 4 mm hook, this was fun to make. Making the body first and then surface crocheting loops in a spiral. This design is supposed to be a lot smaller, but I used super bulky weight.
