My World of Roly-Poly Crocheted Critters!
I craft in the fiber art of Crochet and my specialty is stuffed animals. I recently discovered a style I call Roly-Poly and have been making a whole series of stuffed animals that are in this 'Round' shape. They turned out so adorable, I just had to share them with you. Most of my 'critters' are crocheted in the same basic pattern, with differences in ears & tails and facial features unique to each animal.
To give you an idea what each animal looks like, I searched for some animal pictures to match each of my creations. Since my stuffed animals are a round roly-poly shape, I naturally wanted to find some 'round' pictures and found the perfect thing in these 'Round" magnets, buttons, and keychains in a variety of terrific shops on Zazzle. Welcome to my World of Roly-Poly stuffed animals!

A Penquin on a Keychain
Mr. Penguin is...
Roly-Poly and Round

A cute and cuddly amigurumi-style Penguin who is crocheted in black and white acrylic yarn and plumply stuffed with soft polyfil. He has an orange beak and feet and his features are embroidered in yarn to make him soft and safe all over. Mr. Penguin stands about 6 inches tall and is about 5 inches from 'wing to wing' He measures 15 inches around his plump body.
Little Blue Fairy Penguin
Found on Philip Island, Australia
This is my interpretation, in crochet, of Australia's "Little" Penguin. In the past, they were known as Blue Penguins and Fairy Penguins, and are now officially known as "Little Penguins". And they are actually 'blue'.
My crocheted version measures just 4 x 5 inches and is made in blue & white acrylic yarn. He is stuffed with soft polyfil and has blue safety eyes for features.
What are Little Blue Fairy Penguins?

Seegreen and her delightful lens about these "Little Blue Fairy Penguins" was my inspiration for my crocheted version. Come read about why I fell in love with this little blue penguin.

There is no finer cat than I am

Lady Bug, Lady Bug, Fly Away Home...
Lady Bugs Magnet
"Real" Lady Bugs on a Branch
Colorful Lady Bugs
One, Two, and Three...

Did you know that lady bugs can be found in yellow and in orange, as well as red? I've created several 'red' lady bugs in my round plush version, but once I discovered lady bugs are not 'just red', I had to also make a couple more in orange and yellow. These are my round little cuties in my lady bug theme! Each Lady Bug measures approximately 7" long, 5" high and 4" across.

Orange Lady Bug is hand-crocheted in washable acrylic yarn in a burnt orange and black and softly stuffed with polyfil. Her antennae and facial features are embroidered in orange on a black face.

Yellow Lady Bug is made in yellow and black acrylic yarn and softly stuffed with polyfil. Her antennae and facial features are embroidered in yellow on a black face.
Soft and cuddly and fun, these colorful Lady Bug plushies will delight any youngster (or collector of Lady Bugs).
