Today’s toy is a crocheted elf. Design by Kindness company on YouTube. Using Premier Just Yarn, Red Heart Super Saver, and a 3 mm hook, this little guy is so cute! I added a large jingle bell to his hat. It is quite annoying! I hope to sell him at my market tomorrow.
Today’s toy is a crocheted ear of corn with a face. Design by Joey Diehl. Using Bernat blanket, Big Twist, and a 4.5 mm hook, this was fun to make, but needed adjustment. I think it was the different textures of yarn, but the corn didn’t fit into the husk. Super cute if you are…
Today’s toy is a butterfly that I had to size down since I was using Hobbii’s Honey Bunny Candy yarn that is a bulky weight. I crocheted with a 5 mm hook and used the blue and purple. I don’t recall what I did to resize the pattern and I didn’t write it down. When…

Every time I crocheted the folded…
Today’s toy is a crocheted whale. Design by NaimanovaToys on Etsy. Using Bernat blanket, Mainstays cozy chenille, Premier just chenille, and a 4.5 mm hook, I decided to do the traditional colors with color changes that the pattern suggests. These whales are quite small. I might donate them to the shoebox ministry.
