Today’s toy is a crocheted chick. Design by Merutoys. Using Premier’s Bloom chenille and a 4.5 mm hook, this chick was modified since I used thicker yarn.

Today’s toy is a crocheted cat. Design by CraftinginTx. Using Bernat blanket and a 4.5 mm hook, you can see the face better in real life. The salt/pepper yarn is very busy.

Today’s toy is a crocheted cat. My design. Using Premier Bloom chenille yarn and 4.5 mm hook, I wanted to see if the yarn shedded with crochet as badly as knitting. Yes, it does. I do not like this yarn, but love the bloom colorways. The tail was crocheted while crocheting the rounds, just chain…
Today’s toy is a pot of crocheted succulents. Design by Lauren Espy. Using many different greens I had on hand and a 3 mm hook, this was a tedious one. I liked making the prickly parts of the large cactus. I thought about adding a flower as well. Not my favorite.
Today’s toy is a crocheted monkey. The pattern is by Mariska Vos-Bolman and is written for many weights of yarn. Using Hobby Lobby’s soft secret yarn and a 2 mm crochet hook, this toy is small. The muzzle doesn’t look like the picture in the pattern, but my aunt guessed that it was a monkey….
