While crocheting the Turban for Miss Happy for my best online friend Andrea, I was wanting to come up
with something to mail her son, Avery, as a gift. I know Avery loves cars and trucks and probably has
every cool car and truck that is sold in stores and online. So I decided to make him this awesome little
airplane! It didnt take long before my daughter started crying for an airplane also, so I made her a pink
one too! This is my first time crocheting Amigurumi and I must admit I think I may start a new addiction! I
never realized how fun and easy these would be to make! I hope you and Avery enjoy this free crochet
pattern for a toy airplane as much as I and my daughter does.
