While checking out some cute crochet Christmas patterns, I fell in love with the Santa Turtle by Happy Turtle Crochet. After making the Sunflower Turtle pattern, I was already familiar with the designer and knew it would be a well-written pattern. This cutie worked up so quickly and is incredibly adorable! My friends and family all agree that everyone needs a Santa Turtle in their lives this holiday season!

Mini Kitty – Crochet Pattern Review
The Mini Kitty pattern by Crafty Kat is a super easy, super quick, no-sew pattern! I love how you can easily make tons of different kitties just by changing up the color of your yarn. While you can add color changes to this pattern, they still look fantastic all in one color, which makes them super easy for market prep! While such a simple pattern, they have so much personality. I’m already working on making a ton more for my upcoming craft shows!

Shawn the Shark – Crochet Pattern Review
I love how easily the Shawn the Shark pattern worked up! I decided to go rogue and make mine in super bulky yarn, and it turned out so big and cuddly!

No-Sew Axolotl – Crochet Pattern Review
When I found Stitch by Fay’s No-Sew Axolotl pattern, I knew immediately that it would be perfect! Not only does it use exactly the right colors of yarn, but it is super adorable! I had the wonderful opportunity to see a real-life axolotl that was a classroom pet at the school I used to teach at, and I have to say that this pattern looks pretty realistic too! I’m super impressed by how easily the pattern works up, and I can’t wait to make these little cuties on repeat for my upcoming markets!

love how realistic the Poppy Pig pattern turns out. The finished stuffie is a cute and friendly-looking pig with a curious look on its face and all the important features. The curly tail, the details in the snout, and the floppy ears are all perfect characteristics. I can’t wait to debut this adorable pig stuffie at my upcoming fall markets.

If you are looking for a great, realistic octopus pattern, the Anchor the Octopus (or Mini Anchor the Octopus) are for you! Both patterns are intermediate patterns that work up faster than you would expect for their size. The finished octopi are so cute and squishy when finished. I highly recommend you try one (or both) of these patterns out!
