Crocheting

Today’s toy is a crocheted mouse in a leaf bed. Pattern by April Lesley. Using Knit Picks cotlin and Lion Brand yarn and sizes 3 and 3.5 mm hooks, this was a super quick make. I used pink for the cover so it looks like a flower petal. Super simple way of doing the feet…

Today’s toy is a small crocheted doll that is dressed as Snow White. Design by beary_bearnita on @threads. I used acrylic yarn from Amazon and a 3 mm hook. It turned out well. Nice size. I could not get the hair to lay flat.

Today’s toy is a crocheted doll. This pattern is by Sevgili Ilmkler. Using Jubilee Yarn bamboo cotton sport, Sheepjes Cato a, Yarn Art Jeans, and 2 mm hook, the body of the doll was much smaller than the shoes and jumper. Next time I will use the same yarn. The hair took forever!

Today’s toy is a crocheted pig. Designed by Lonemer creations. Using Big Twist plush and Yarn Art Jeans and a 4 mm hook, this was my third version of the pattern, first using bulky yarn. I love the brown on the light pink for the facial features.

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 raccoon lovey. This pattern is by Elisa Sartori. I didn’t realize how big the pattern would be. After the head, I decided there would not be enough yarn, so I crocheted the blanket with different yarns. The yarns used: Hobby Lobby’s soft secret, Big Twist twinkle, and Yarn Art Jeans….

Today’s toy is a crocheted teddy. I followed a design on Threads for an elephant and changed the face and ears for a bear. Using Bernat Softee Baby cotton, YarnArt jeans yarn, and a 2 mm hook, this was a quick make. I like the contrasting color for the paws and the toes.

Today’s toy is a crocheted pillow. I participated in a crochet along on Instagram where the designer send part 1 of a pattern and if you complete it in 72 hours, she will send part two. I had only a few hours since I saw it late, but I did complete the shell and she…

Today’s toy is a crocheted raccoon from Lauren Espy’s book, Animal Amigurumi Adventures volume 1. Using all the sparkle yarn, Joann’s Big Twist Twinkle, Soft Secret party, and a 2.5 mm hook, this pattern was fun to make. I didn’t realize the size of these patterns based on the book photos. They are rather large….

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.
