Any child would be thrilled to find this gay clown in her Christmas stocking. The toy is easily and quickly made from wool in a simple crochet stitch. Either the body or head portions could be used separately for soft balls for the baby.

Materials: Half an ounce of blue wool and half an ounce of red (or any two colors preferred), a bone crochet hook size 8, also a ball of white crochet silk, and a steel crochet hook, size 3.

Note from Raveller: No gauge or size is given, but this vintage clown could be worked in any yarn with an appropriately sized hook.
