Candy fish!!

[gnathalie2]

This is my new cat toy that uses candy wrappers as stuffing:

 

 

 

Materials:

size G hook

ww yarn (i used Lion Brand Cotton Ease)

candy wrappers (about 6 whoppers wrappers, or any 'crunchy'/heavier type plastic wrappers)

 

Pattern:

with main color, 5sc in a ring

rd1: 2sc in each sc around (10)

rd2: 2sc in first sc, sc in next sc around (15)

rd3: 2sc in first sc, sc in next 2 sc around (20)

rd4-7: sc in each sc around (20)

rd8: sc2tog, sc in next 2 sc around (15)

rd9: sc2tog, sc in next sc around (10)

stuff fish here

rd10: sc2tog around (5)

rd11: sl st to close hole, chain 20

r12: sl st into rd11 sl st (bottom of fish) and chain 15

r13: sl st into r12 sl st and chain 10

r14: sl st into r13 sl st, fasten off

For the ‘fishing line’, attach any color yarn with sl st to the top of the fish and chain like 50 or so. I made a loop at the end by just tying a knot, and i used black yarn to sew an ‘X’ for the eyes.
