One Last Crochet Challenge Before Christmas 🎄🧶 | Vlogmas Day 23

Описание: Welcome to Vlogmas Day 23 🎄✨
For today’s vlog, I decided to do one final crochet challenge before Christmas and of course, the wheel made it difficult 😅🎡

Before spinning, I had to sew on the final piece of my Anchor octopus, and I am officially obsessed with how this plushie turned out 🐙✨ I wanted the last challenge of Vlogmas to be something fun, but the wheel had other plans. After landing on “make 20 of one plushie” and “finish chick with frog hats”, I spun again and finally landed on “finish a specific skein of yarn.”

I spun again to choose the yarn and ended up with Bernat Blanket in Royal Blue—a full skein 😳🧶 Darker colors are always a challenge for me since I tend to gravitate toward lighter yarns, but I accepted the challenge. I do technically have another skein of this color buried in my overflow yarn closet, but since my in-laws are visiting, that box is currently off-limits. If I ran out of yarn, the plushie would simply become a WIP until I can make my yarn room chaotic again 😅

I ended up making a blue and grey dinosaur and an alien axolotl—both patterns I haven’t made in years, which was a really fun bonus of these crochet challenges. I did lose yarn chicken on the alien axolotl with just three rounds left, so that one will be finished next week once the in-laws leave 🧶😂

Let me know in the comments what plushies you think work best with blue yarn—I need ideas! 💙✨
