Today’s toy is a crocheted unicorn. Pattern tutorial on YouTube by cotton candy crafts. Using Bernat velvet, Lion Brand ice cream yarn, Red Heart super saver, and a 3 mm hook, this did take quite a while and it is large. I like how the belly is added after the legs and back are made….
Today’s toy is a crocheted bear. Square bear from Yarnspirations. Using minis from Amazon, Yarn ID, and a 3.5 mm hook, this was simple. You start with a square and change colors for the different parts of the bear. I like the ribbing for the shirt collar. I added the flower for the front. Not…

Today’s toy is a crocheted crab. Design by Irene Strange. I got the pattern from a magazine online. Using Catona cotton, Elann.com cotton, and a 2.5 mm hook, this was a fun colorful pattern. I gave it to my sister for her birthday because she is the sign, Cancer, the crab.
Today’s toy is a crocheted sheep. Design by Kein Maker. Using Regia sock yarn, Crafter’s Square and a 2 mm hook, this was quick to make. I used thinner yarn than called for in the pattern. It probably looks cuter with the blanket yarn.

Today’s toy is a crocheted macaron. Design by Lauren Espy. Using embroidery floss, six strand, and a 1.5 mm hook, these are very colorful and easy to make. I sent them to a friend’s son who is a bakery chef. I did not put the eyes on them.
Today’s toy is a crocheted cookie. Design by Lauren Espy. Using Crafter’s square and Premier anti-pilling everyday dk and a 3.5 mm hook, this was fun to make with two circles. I put the face on it to make it a toy. I usually leave the faces off of food items.
