Today’s toy is a crocheted puppy dressed as a ghost for Halloween. Design by
Dulcepassina23 on @threads. Using Red Heart stripes and a 3 mm hook, this was quick and fun to make. I even crocheted a bone to put in the pumpkin treat bag. My neighbor decorates for the seasons so I gave her this dog for Halloween. For the eyes, since the dog face is black, I just put a few stitches to look like the white of the eyes. Simple but effective!
Today’s toy is a knitted and crocheted elephant using the pattern, Elephant Baby Toy by Alexandra Fransisco. The yarn for the main part of the toy was Knit Picks Dishie in silver. The blue is Hobby Lobby Yarn Bee Soft Secret in Navy. The orange is acrylic minis I received from Amazon. These are the…
Today’s toy is a crocheted monkey lovey. The pattern is by Crochet at Teri’s. Great pattern using a hexagon to turn into a leg and arm. I will use this body again. Not a good idea to use such a bulky yarn for the feet and hands. Using Mainstays cozy chenille and Big Twist and…
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.

Today’s toy is a flamingo. By Phillip Ha. I used Hobby Lobby Yarn Bee Soft Secret in soft pink and lemon. I am enjoying using a 4 mm hook holding the yarn double. It makes a nice sized toy and I think one strand would have too much drape. This is leftover yarn from my…
When I made the land turtle (https://craftingintx.com/2024/01/january-15-land-turtle/), my husband asked why it took me so long to crochet a turtle. Today, I show you the sea turtle. I prefer sea turtles to land turtles. They are so graceful. I know I used the wrong coloring, but my favorite color is green. This design has too…
Today’s toy is a crocheted elephant. The design is from Ana at Little Crochet Farm. Using Bernat blanket yarn and a 5 mm hook, this turned out larger than the pattern. I changed the trunk and I made a braided tail from some acrylic yarn I have.
