A cuddly crochet sun would be a great addition to a baby’s mobile… or hanging in a school locker… or on the rear dash of a car… or anyplace that needs cheering up. (I’m thinking every dentist office needs at least one). Finished Size: 6″ tall by 6″ wide by 1 1/2″ deep

(48) Rnd 9: * 7 sc, inc, rep from * 5 more times. Join with slst. (54) FO and weave in ends. Joining Rnd: Arrange sides of the sun together with RS facing out. Align stitches. Pick one set of stitches and pull up a loop of orange through them both, ch 1. Sc in each set of stitches all the way around to join the 2 sides together. Stuff firmly with polyester stuffing when you get about ¾ of the way around. Do not FO. (54) Put a stitch marker in the FL of the 1st sc of the Joining Rnd.
Sunshine Rays Rnd 1: Continuing with orange, sc in BL of ea of next 4 sc. * Ch 8, sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in next ch, dc in next ch, tr in next 2 ch, dtr in next 2 ch, sk next 5 BLs, sc in next BL, rep from * 7 more times. Ch 8, sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc in next ch, dc in next ch, tr in next 2 ch, dtr in next 2 ch, sk next 5 BLs, slst in BL of next sc. FO, and weave in ends.
Rnd 2: With yellow, pull up a loop in the FL you marked with the PM, ch 2. In FLs only, dc, 2 tr, dc, ch 2 and sc, * sc and ch 2, dc, 2 tr, dc, ch 2 and sc, rep from * 7 more times. FO and weave in ends. (Photo shows where to pull up a loop of yellow.) Sew on eyes and embroider a smile. If you want your sunshine rays to stand straight and tall, you may need to starch and block them. Otherwise they will probably curl a bit, which kinda looks cool too in my opinion.
Hang your cuddly sun anyplace that needs a little cheering up!
