"Crochet dinosaurs" is such a lovely combination of words. It brings to mind the world's biggest and most ferocious reptiles to have ever existed -- and shrinks them down to cute and cuddly yarn creatures for children of all ages to hug and play with.
Who doesn't love a cute dinosaur?
They often come in greens, reds, oranges, spotted, sometimes with back scales, sometimes with long necks... but almost always come with teeny tiny arms/legs and chubby bodies. No wonder why we love them!
I save so many of these creatures on my Pinterest board. All of the cute, chubby crochet dinosaurs of the internet are gathered into one place for me to admire.
I'm still waiting for the perfect weekend when I can crochet as many as I possibly can. I'd make them in all colors, shapes, and sizes, then I'd throw them into a big pile on my bed, and hug them. <3
With their unassuming eyes, and expressionless (sometimes nonexistent) mouths, you feel like you can give a piece of your heart to these little guys with no risk at all of that love going to waste. It's like they're giving you a hug you right back!
