Maybe it’s the season or maybe it’s because they’re just so darn cute, I’ve recently had the urge to make toys. Apparently I’m not the only one because there were tons of adorable new crochet toy patterns published this month! Half of today’s newly published pattern finds are cute, wearable crochet patterns, but the other half are ALL toys! Crochet lends itself so well to toy making: it’s easy to crochet sculptural finished pieces that are a bit sturdier than their knit or sewn counterparts. If you’ve been thinking of trying to crochet or trying your hook at amigurumi, some of these toys might be just the inspiration you need to get started!
