The Little Drop of Wonderful is, at heart, a little bit of happiness. Make it, stuff it, squeeze it, throw it, slam it, cuddle it, give it away…there are so many options to bring a smile to your face, or someone else’s!

Feeling sad? Cuddle it!
Feeling friendly? Give it as a gift!
Feeling stressed? Squeeeeeeze it hard!

Feeling angry? Throw it at a wall! (Just be sure you a haven’t added plastic eyes first!)

This pattern is great for experienced and beginner crocheters alike - I have included lots of tips and information. Plus it’s quick! The main body of the Droplet is worked in just 29 rounds!

You can make the Little Drop of Wonderful with any yarn - just be sure to choose a hook that gives you a good tight gauge. For the samples pictured I used:

• Dark Blue Droplet: 1 x 50g ball of Rico Creative Cotton Aran (85m) and a 2.5mm hook
• Pink Droplet: 15g of Paintbox Cotton DK (37.5m) and a 2mm hook
• Bright Blue Droplet: Schachenmayr Catania Cotton 4ply and a 1.5mm hook

Amy from Noble Character Crafts has written a poem that you can print out to go with your Little Drop of Wonderful if you are giving it as a gift, it’s so perfect:

I’m a Little Drop of Wonderful I’m here to help you out When you’re feeling frustrated And need to give a shout.

Squeeze me, you won’t hurt me. I’m soft and very small. I want you to feel better. Just throw me at the wall.

Or when you have a sad day And are feeling rather blue, Give me a hug. I’ll dry your tears. I will be here for you.

We all have good and bad days. Be sure to keep in mind… You’re a Little Drop of Wonderful And one of a kind!
