While I love all the animals in the Fable Collection and can’t wait to make each of them up, I think the Finn Bear has been my favorite one to make so far! The Finn Bear is a super cute and simple bear that gives off classic cottage-core vibes. The pattern comes with outfits to dress him up or you can leave him as is for a more simplistic look. In addition, Oak and Marlow just released a free modification to turn the Finn Bear into a baby bear, which makes the perfect little teddy bear!

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!
