Today’s toy is a crocheted elephant. This design is from spin a yarn. She has many free “rag doll” patterns that I want to make. The design is simple, worked back and forth in rows and then the panels are joined while stuffing. I chose to make the bird for the top of the head….
Today’s toy is a crocheted fox. I used a pattern but I do not see my notes in Ravelry and don’t remember who the designer is. I used cotton yarn for the toy so the detail is great. Love the tail. Used scraps from stash especially the green shirt that is Knit Picks essential kettle…

Today’s toy is a crocheted bunny from Darling Maple Designs. Crocheted with Sirdar Happy Chenille yarn and a 2 mm hook, I used minis so had to use two colors I had on hand even though this was a small toy. The yarn wormed terribly. Fuzz was everywhere. I hope it doesn’t do that in…
