It’s been awhile since my last post. Between a sick family and craziness at work, I’ve barely had time to crochet!
I wanted to post a great charity pattern that’s great for cleaning out those scraps we all keep around “just in case.” I just can’t get rid of good yarn, and this pattern gives me a great reason to keep it around. It also combines two of my favorite things: wine and crochet!
The link to the original pattern is here:

I modified the pattern a little. I used an I hook and double crochets (8 per round). This also means fewer rounds. For some of the toys, I did DC, Ch 1 around skipping every other stitch to create “windows.” I also added tassels to some.
The toys work up very quickly. You could probably finished one or two toys before you finish one glass of cab!
