crochet and knit hearts today. I used patterns and made up patterns for many different sizes of hearts to put into a bouquet for my sister, display on my entertainment center and give as gifts to family. Different yarns were used, just any white, pink, red, or purple I had on hand. Sometimes I used…
I have been crocheting and knitting many hearts this month to give to family members. I have seen on Pinterest hearts that are turned on the side and adding cat features to them. I did this for two. I also did a bunny. Today’s toy is a cat heart I am giving to my SIL,…
Today’s crochet toy is a bear that is so dark, I had to crochet blue eyes so they would stand out on the toy. I used some boucle yarn so the stitches were difficult to see. This was a pattern I found online for a mini bear, but I couldn’t find it on Ravelry for…
Today’s toy is a knitted frog head. I used the same shape as the bunny head. My sister’s birthday gift was the Honey Bunny candy yarn from Hobbii (https://hobbii.com/yarn) I used 5 mm knitting needles. The eyes were knitted on top with the existing stitches. I did not sew them on. I used scrap yarn…
Today’s toy is a bunny. I knitted a bulb shape, larger on the bottom tapering to the top. It is similar to a bunny I knitted earlier this month (https://craftingintx.com/2024/01/january-7-bunny/) Knitted with Mainstays chenille chunky with US 8 knitting needles (5 mm). I then thought it would be fun to add fabric to the ears…

Today’s toy was a turtle kit from DIY. Bill bought it for me for Christmas but misplaced it, so I got it on Friday. It had the yarn, hook, darning needle, stuffing, stitch markers, and pattern for an adorable land turtle toy. I crocheted it in a couple of hours. I liked the color work…
Today’s toy is a bluebird of happiness. Knitted on US 4 needles (3.5 mm) with Red Heart super saver country blue. I used scrap yarn to embellish it with flowers. It is hanging in my entryway. It makes me happy! The pattern is by Sara Elizabeth Kellner.
Today’s toy is a frog, a crochet pattern by Ana Carolina Figueiredo, Little Crochet Farm. I changed the pattern to make him smaller. The body increases stopped at 36. The eyes, only 12, fingers, 4, then 6, then 2 rounds, middle finger: 4, then 6, then 3 rounds. Joining the fingers, only 18 stitches around,…
Today’s toy is another Hoppy the bunny I designed and crocheted. I am still working on the pattern for the Huggable Heart, so I haven’t started the Hoppy pattern yet. Video is needed for Hoppy since I had different numbers for where to place the shaping of the face with different yarn. This time, I…
