I love making toys from scraps but decided to splurge and buy new yarn selecting colours more appropriate for my next "Wild Animal".
I bought five - 50 g balls of Mary Maxim Ultra Mellowspun DK yarn (70% acrylic, 30% nylon); two each in melon and rose and one in black. I also bought one - 100 g ball of Mary Maxim Trendy Baby DK yarn (100% Antipilling Acrylic) in playful pink print.
This new yarn is super soft, "non-splitty" and easy to crochet with ... perfect for toys. I expect I have found a new favourite yarn for when my 'stash' just won't do. I'm almost finished #9 on my list with this new yarn.
Can you guess what it is?
I will be sure to share photos when #9 is done. Wait for it coming soon.
Here's the complete list of animals featured in the Crocheted Wild Animals book with the eight I've finished so far listed below.

Flamingo - for sure
ReplyDeleteGood 'guess'.
DeleteA pink monkey! (LOL)
ReplyDeleteThat might be fun too.
DeleteI didn't look at the list and I thought "octopus". That would such a great toy for your grand kids.
ReplyDeleteOctopus will definitely be on my list when I start another of Vanessa Mooncie's books "Crocheted Sea Creatures". Crocheting the year away one book at a time.
